Hey everyone, thanks for the quick email responses regarding the details for our two upcoming weekend events. I know it can get kind of complicated trying to organize stuff through email sometimes, so I really appreciate your cooperation!

As you all probably know already, MAD will be volunteering at the US Half Marathon this Sunday from 6AM to 11AM. A semi-formal volunteers list is included below.

Diana Liem, Paula Fon, and Linda Tsang got bumped up to the volunteers list from the waiting list, so if any of you three don't want to volunteer at the US Half Marathon, please let me now ASAP (and I mean it when I say "as soon as possible") so we can give the other people on the waiting list a chance to volunteer at this event. I will send out another volunteers list tomorrow night, and that list will be considered FINAL. That means if your name is on the list but you don't show up on Sunday, you will get negative five credits. The end of the semester is nearing and there won't be as many opportunities for you to make up negative credits, so don't let this happen to you, and e-mail me NOW if you know something will come up preventing you from volunteering this Sunday.

I want to especially thank all the volunteers on the US Half Marathon waiting list who decided to sign up for the Treasure Island Triathlon instead - I really appreciate your flexibility!

If any of you wonderful MAD Clubbers are still interested in volunteering at the Treasure Island triathlon, it's not too late - send me an e-mail with your name and reg by 8:00 PM on Friday, November 3rd, and I'll put you on the list.

Here are the details about race day for the US Half Marathon:

All volunteers must arrive at Jefferson and Hyde (Aquatic Park) between 5:45 AM and 6 AM (no tardies!) to sign in with a MAD officer at the big, white Volunteers/Medical tent.

Meet at the green arrow.

You can see a bigger version of the map and get directions from Google Maps here.

After you sign in, you will receive a t-shirt, a goodie bag (yay), and your specific assignment for the day. For the most part, our club will be stationed at the finish line festival as "course marshals" on Marina Blvd and at mile 3 & 5 water stations. It should be lots of fun!

Like always, if you have any questions, feel free to email me or call me up on my cell on race day (415-830-2371) and I'll try my best to help you.

Thanks again for volunteering, everyone!
