Volunteer for the Rattler Run!

Do you have a few hours to spare on race day or in the days leading up to race day? If so, we'd love to have you volunteer for the Rattler Run. We need people to direct runners on the course, hand out water and food, set up equipment, etc. All volunteers will receive a 2025 Rattler Run Volunteer t-shirt for their efforts.

If you'd like to get involved, please e-mail Kristina Hyde at khyde@mhc.ab.ca.

On Wednesday, April 23 at 6 p.m. at the Crowfoot Room at the MHC campus, we will be having a Volunteers' Meeting where you will be able to pick up your t-shirt and get details about your volunteer assignment. Pizza will be served.
