Contact your team leader and grab another volunteer. Together, take the
youth to LOST KIDS in section 13 in the Scotiabank Centre.
Lost Kids area will be clearly marked.
Volunteers will be easily spotted wearing a bright t-shirt.
5. Info Booth Volunteers
You are the first face our registrants see so you are very important!
Your role is to welcome them to the Active Living Expo at WTCC and answer
questions about the Blue Nose Marathon weekend.
There will be an information package provided prior to your shift. It is
important that you become familiar with all three levels at the WTCC, the
Scotiabank Centre, as well as the race events, and the many activities taking
place during Blue Nose weekend.
Where there is a need, Info Booth volunteers maybe redirected during their
shifts.
6. Kit Pick Up
• Youth or Adult kit pick up is offered Friday and Saturday at the WTCC.
• Youth, and 10K kit pick up are on Level 1.
• 5K, Half, Full Marathon, and Marathon Team Relay kit pick up are on
Level 2.
• Both levels have Chip Activation.
• Volunteers cross-check participant’s name, race events entered, and
provides the race kit including t-shirt to the participant.
Make sure runners know to activate their chip or they won’t get a time!
7. Point of Sale
Runner Services manages the Point of Sale (POS) system that
processes fees for Race Entry – onsite on race weekend.
It is helpful, but not necessary, that volunteers
have experience with a cash register and debit
machine – our coordinators will show you the ropes.
POS is located on Level 1 of the WTCC.
Pre-shift training will be provided for this position.
8. On-site Registration
• Volunteers assist walkers and runners who have yet to register for Blue
Nose events.
• You may be asked questions about the events so you need to be very
familiar with Scotiabank Blue Nose Marathon.

topics such as t-shirt exchange, No Sweat policy, Sponsor registration,
Charity Challenge to name a few.
• Registration is located on Level 1 of the WTCC.
9. Volunteer Centre
All volunteers must check in at the Volunteer Centre prior to their shift.
• Folks here assist with registering volunteers, providing t-shirts and making
sure they have what they need before sending them out on their shift.
• Secure bag storage is available for our volunteers!
• They also provide some refreshment and
snacks.
10. Distribution Centre
Logistics Volunteers distribute pre ordered supplies to other committees such
as:
Tools, office supplies, snacks, radios, etc.
We use carts to deliver and some items are heavy so expect to work in teams
of two. This team also conduct inventory and repack supplies, outbound post
event. Get ready to work those muscles!
If you are required to visit the Distribution Centre, it is located on the 3rd Floor
of the WTCC and is open all three days during Event Weekend.
11. Did you forget any details about your
volunteer shifts?
Our new volunteer software can provide you with that
information. The “Forgot your assignments” button can be
found on the Volunteer Sign up page (see below).
12. Recap, Key Reminders!
• Know your role (if you don’t, ask questions).
• Be safe and keep the participants safe.
• Don’t abandon your post!
• Stay until the end of the event or your shift.
• Last, but not least, have FUN!
