Announcing a great fundraising opportunity for our 4th of July fireworks display

Details:
- Course marshals are a critical part of the Shamrock event as they prevent unauthorized access to the race course during the half and full marathon on Sunday, March 22, 2015. Course marshals also act as guides and cheerleaders for race participants!
- Volunteers will man key intersections on Atlantic Avenue from 31st to 89th Street during the race. Specific assignments and instructions will be issued closer to race week.
- Volunteers will be required from 6am to 3pm, depending on specific location.
