Special Olympics Area 10 Track and Field Spring Games

The Special Olympics Area 10 Track and Field Games will be held on Saturday, May 17, 2008 from 8:30am-4:00pm at Carleton College Stadium. Over 250 Special Olympic Athletes from Southern Minnesota,including Northfield, will be competing in a variety of track and field events in order to qualify for the State Games in June.
We are looking for volunteers to help with set-up,to assist with the timing of athletes during competition, escorting athletes to their events, assistance in the award tent writing out winners ribbons, making award presentations, as well as clean-up. Volunteers will be given a volunteer t-shirt and lunch will be provided for anyone working 4 or more hours. Families are welcome to volunteer, but children must be 10 years of age or older and accompanied by an adult. Please specify if you are bringing a child with you to volunteer.
It is our preference that you are available for the entire day, however we could accommodate volunteers who would be available from 6:30-8:30 am for set-up, 3:00-5:00pm for clean-up, or for either of these two shifts, 8:30-12:00pm or 12:45-4:00pm.
