Volunteer Information

Can we count on YOU to volunteer? Opportunities listed below....Please fill out Application Form

Volunteering is a great way to feel the excitement of the event. Every year, The Survive and Thrive Run Walk Health & Safety Expo counts on dedicated volunteers who work together to ensure a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for all.

Our volunteers are equally as important as our participants. Without our volunteers, this event would not be possible. The CSI Volunteers comprise a very diverse group of dedicated people. Volunteering at The Event is not just about completing a job. It is also about the fellowship that goes along with working closely with others.

We always strive to find a place for everyone who is interested in volunteering at The Event. Every position is vital to the success of our event. We need dedicated people who can follow through and complete his or her given job assignment. Can we count on you?

Remember, The Event is a family-focused community event. We wish to include people of all ages and welcome individuals and groups.

Volunteer Opportunities Include
It's been said our volunteers do a little bit of everything - they help with set up and clean up, hand out food, snacks and drinks, collect registrations, direct walkers/runners, distribute t-shirts, goody bags, medals and a myriad of other tasks. Most of all, they have a lot of fun! Let us know if you are volunteering as an individual or if you are volunteering as a group. Food, Drinks and Fun will be provided for all volunteers.
