Dear Parents and athletes,
Thank you so much to those of you who have already volunteered to be a marshal for the Wilmslow Half-marathon, which will take place on Sunday 22nd March 2015. As we mentioned previously, this is always an excellent fundraiser for the club, generating around £300 of income, so your help is very much appreciated.
We are still looking for a couple more volunteers. Can you help?
Simon Cathery is co-ordinating HWAAC marshals and he'd love to hear from you if you can help. He can also answer any questions you may have. You can either contact Simon direct on [email protected] or 07986 184673. Alternatively please make yourself known to Simon on Thursday 5th March at training.
You will need to be on duty from 9:30 am but the good news is that we have a spot early in the race at the junction opposite The Honey Bee on Altrincham Road and most marshals can get away after the last runner has passed this point.
We do need 2 people to stay on the Honey Bee junction after the runners have passed until the road is reopened at The Cheshire Smokehouse but the majority of people will be able to get away around 11 am.
No previous experience is needed and it is a good opportunity to support the club and to get involved in the Half Marathon without weeks of training and too many aching muscles!
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Many thanks for your support.
