The annual Heartland events are fast approaching, and we are calling on enthusiastic volunteers to join us in making this year’s event a memorable success. The kids fun run will kick off the weekend on Friday, September 20th with the half marathon, 5K, & team challenge taking place Saturday, September 21 in Jasper, IN.

Volunteering for the Heartland Half Marathon is a great way to get involved in the community, meet new people, and contribute to a good cause. Volunteers are needed for various roles, including:

  • Registration and packet pickup
  • Water stations
  • Intersections
  • Finish Line

No prior experience is necessary, and all volunteers will have the opportunity to attend a volunteer meeting to learn about expectations and responsibilities on race day.  Volunteers will also receive a complimentary T-shirt.

“We rely on the generous support of our volunteers to make the Heartland Half Marathon, 5K, Team Challenge & Kids Fun Run a success,” said Jessica Lindauer, Heartland committee member and board member for DC Multisport.  “Their enthusiasm and dedication help create a positive and encouraging atmosphere for all our runners.”

The Heartland Half Marathon is a community event that brings together runners of all levels to celebrate fitness, health, and camaraderie. By volunteering, you play a vital role in supporting these goals and ensuring the safety and enjoyment of all participants.
