Barrington Mother’s Day 5K – Volunteer

When- May 10th, 2026 from 6:45am – 10:30am

Where – 212 S. Grove Ave Barrington, IL 60010 Lot 18 – BMO Harris Bank Parking Lot.

Who – Upon arrival volunteers are to meet an All-Community Events staff underneath the red registration tents and sign

in on the volunteer sign-in sheet.

Job Descriptions

Registration assistant – Volunteers will help with the process of participants checking in. They will check if the

participant is registered by last name and if so then give them their race materials. Some volunteers will also assist with

the process of new participants signing up the day of the race.

Post-race registration/food – Once registration is closed the tents will be used for food primarily. Volunteers will help

organize the food and monitor it while participants are finishing. Hoodie exchanging will also be going on. Participants

will be asking to exchange their hoodies for a different size and at this time it is okay as long as they didn’t run in it.

Course Marshal – Course marshals will be placed on the course (in pairs of two minimum) and help direct the

participants so they run the correct way. Here we ask the volunteers to be as enthusiastic as possible encouraging the

runners to have a good time.

Water Station – Volunteers assigned to the water station will fill up cups of water and help distribute them to passing

participants.

Volunteers will more than likely work more than one job throughout the event. Also, there will be more jobs than listed above, those are the most typical.
