A special message from the Chamber's Angela Michaels:
CALLING ALL VOLUNTEERS
Our runners are dedicated, but they can't do it without a little help. We are looking for some energetic volunteers and course workers to help with registration, offer water, provide direction, and yell encouragement as our entrants test their endurance. Can't make race day? Volunteer to work at one of our pre-registration and packet pickup locations around the greater Memphis area. It's a great way to introduce yourself and your business to the running community in Memphis. The Move It Memphis race is also an awesome opportunity to meet Memphis residents and runners, network with member businesses, and soak up the wonderful Downtown Memphis rhythm. To volunteer, contact Angela Michaels at 901-543-3546.
