SELECT YOUR SHIFT(S)
We need your help to make the Rockin Brews Marathon safe and enjoyable. If you can help with this fun, family-friendly event, please choose one of the available volunteer positions below. 

You will accumulate $8 per hour that you volunteer. The money can be donated to your favorite charity (no political charities), or you can choose to keep the money for yourself. If you don't have a non-profit in mind, we will donate to Run Strong Madison, and they will pay it forward to other local charities on your behalf. 

You will receive an official I'M ROCKIN IT! t-shirt, free snacks, and drinks at the Finish Line Festival after your shift.
