Haddington Triathlon club are looking for Volunteers to run their annual Haddington Triathlon
Keen to volunteer and give something back to your community? Well... would you be interested in helping out at the 23rd Haddington triathlon as a marshal this year – or know anyone else that would be?
The event takes place on Sunday 4th September and we need about 50 marshals to undertake a number of tasks - eg count the number of lengths that competitors have swum in the pool, or direct runners and cyclists on the route. There is no prior experience required so is a great way to give something back to the sporting community while watching all the action.
We would need marshals to be available from about 8am (at the Aubigny sports centre in Haddington) to about 12.30pm on Sunday 4th September - though pool marshals will be away a bit earlier.
Marshals will receive a packed lunch and a soup. It would be great if you could help out. Most people find it a really enjoyable experience and every year we get so many compliments from competitors as to how wonderful and friendly the Haddington tri marshals are!
We also offer a £100 donation to your chosen charity / club if you are able to provide 6 adult marshals. Any younger volunteers would also be welcome but will be paired up so they're not alone. A great fundraiser for local clubs and charities, as well as Duke Of Edinburgh or Senior School trips!
As usual, we would be delighted to get any offers of help for what is usually a fun event!
If you can help, we would love to hear from you. Please contact us on eltc@live.co.uk and we look forward to seeing you on the 4th.
