Volunteers
Every year, enthusiastic volunteers come together and commit their time to make the Cedars Run for Ovarian Cancer a success. Without the help and support of our volunteers, this event simply would not happen. Volunteers are needed in a variety of areas on site as well as leading up to the event.
There are many ways in which you can help us by becoming a volunteer!
- Food & Drink Stations: Help keep our runners full of energy by becoming a food station volunteer
- Cheer: Help to cheer on the runners along the route
- Registration & Information: Help us to check in all participants and provide them with necessary items and information
- Set-Up and Tear-Down: Help us to set-up the event space and tear it down at the end of the day
