Thank you for wanting to be a “roadie”! Volunteers are the heart and soul of Run Woodstock and it couldn't be done without you!
How can you be a part of the magic?
Just a couple of boring but important things and then you can start browsing!
- ROADIE must be 18 or older unless permission has been given by the Race Director.
- Please plan on arriving 30 minutes before your shift start time, unless otherwise instructed by email! thanks!
- We will do our best to get you heading out at the stated time for the end of your shift...but sometimes you may have to stay a few minutes late. Thanks for your consideration!
Our goal is to create a positive environment where our volunteers (roadies!) have a groovy time while providing much needed support to our runners.
We have many super cool jobs to choose from... bet you can find one that speaks to the helpful hippie in you!

Zero Waste
The Zero Waste team will receive a "Zero Waste" tech tee as well as a ROADIE shirt. Zero Waste team will be trained on the job and will help us divert landfill trash to recycling and composting, reducing the amount of waste we send to the landfill. A big job, but it comes with an even bigger karmic payoff...and an extra shirt! Find these shifts in the Saturday morning, afternoon, and evening ROADIE! dropdowns.
Set Up
Come help out with Set Up! Tents, stages, banners, finish, camp sites, decorate, make Woodstock look like WOODSTOCK!
Registration
Handing out bibs, pins, shirts, smiles & encouraging words, dig?!
Hippie Host/Hostess
You get to be the first friendly hippie face the runners get to meet! Bring a friend, chat, wave your arms, and meet everyone! Help us get everyone where they are going...registration, hippie commune sites, portajohns....you get the drill! We'll be lost without you!
Security Detail
Man the gate! Keep our race site secure! You will be trained ahead of time.
Camp Director
Speak to campers, assist them to their camp sites, explain camp boundaries and rules. Park 100MI/K.
Aid Station
Probably the most important job of all. You're like a bands' personal assistant... except they're runners and they have WAY fewer demands... in fact, they don't demand at all, they usually thank you for providing them with much needed food stuff, beverages, info, kudos, and applause! There are a number of these stations and we need to staff them all with an A+ crew of caring, supportive, attentive people. Sound like you? Far out!
Finish Line
Wanna be one of the faces our runners see at the end of their long journey? Boy, will they be happy to see YOU! If you don't mind sweaty hi-fives (or maybe even hugs) and love to clap and cheer people on, then this is the job for you!
Awards Table
Fun! Rewarding! Exciting! You get to put smiles on runners faces by handing out age group awards, Ultras finisher medals... and you get to "guard the buses" (you'll see what we mean)
Food Table
Like being a waitress, but easier. Hand out food to starving runners, receive thanks, repeat about a thousand times. Done.
Jack/Jill of All Trades...
A great job for the guy or gal that does not like to sit still and can find something to do even IF there is a lull in the action! Jack of all trades....maybe even a master of one or two! You get to do various and assorted jobs around the campground....our hero! You could be handing out medals one minute, parking cars the next, directing runners on the course here and there, cleaning up trash for a bit, and then dishing out lasagna! Don't worry we'll have gloves and a bathroom with running water to wash your hands in in between!
Clean & Tidy Up Crew
Well, this is a job that really speaks for itself... it's not glamorous, but it's the one we're most thankful for!
Just click the SIGN UP button and we'll get you all set to join the best crew in the business...
