Volunteer for a great event and spend a day in Peninsula State Park at the Door County Half Marathon May 5.

Organizers are looking for volunteers to help during the week to help set up for the race, and also on race day as Door County welcomes more than 2,700 runners to Peninsula State Park.

“Our volunteers are so important to the runner’s experience,” said Race Director Brian Fitzgerald. “Our runners have always praised our volunteers, their attitudes, and how much they contribute to the enjoyment of the event. We couldn’t do it without them.”

Volunteers are needed to help assemble runner’s packets the week of the race, at packet pickup at the Ephraim Village Hall Friday, on the course, and at the runner’s concourse at Nicolet Bay on race day, May 5.

“I have run several races – and quite honestly this is the one of the best supported run ever. You do an EXCELLENT JOB on all levels. The support is amazing. The volunteers exceptional. I have ZERO complaints or suggestions.”

“I have done a few half marathons around the midwest and this is by far the best. The organization and communication is fantastic and so are the facilities and race perks. The route is also ideal: starting flat, allowing for the body to acclimate ; followed by a steep incline and then down hill once the body gets a little fatigued. I love it!”
