Description
Please join the SPE Young Professionals group as we volunteer at the Houston Marathon 2018 as part of the HEB Food Court.
We will have one group helping to server runners post-race meals and snacks in the HEB Food Court from 7:00 am to 11:00 am. Be ready to have fun in a great atmosphere! The Houston Marathon consistently sells out its 27,000 runner spots well before race day and people from around the country (and the world) come to Houston to participate in this event. As a Race Crew volunteer, you not only represent SPE but you represent Houston Marathon! Bring comfortable shoes (you will walk a lot) and be flexible, you never know when you might be called to volunteer at other activities in RaceFest, the EXPO or hand out cups of water on the course.
Please note: YOU MUST REGISTER ON THE HOUSTON MARATHON VOLUNTEER WEBSITE WITH OUR GROUP, SOCIETY OF PETROLEUM ENGINEERS, SO THE MARATHON COMMITTEE HAS AN ACCURATE HEADCOUNT.
