Volunteer For the Orca Karapiro Half Ironman

You can be involved in this fantastic community event without having to train, sweat or wear togs in public.

Swimming 2km, cycling 90km and then running 21.1km can be a bit of a daunting task for some of us, so why not enjoy the atmosphere of the event, see all of the action and be one of the many people who are responsible for making it happen?

For an event like the Orca Karapiro Half Ironman to be successful we rely on the help of dozens of helpers who, behind the scenes, on the corners, at the drink stations, in transition, on the Lake and in Event HQ use their combined enthusiasm, skills and dedication to allow the competitors to put on the show.

As well as all of the “race day” jobs the team needs help to set up the course, put together registration packs, help at registration, pack up gear, feed the athletes post race, organise prize giving and that most important of jobs – make cups of tea and food for the volunteers. If you volunteer we will be asking you to do a job (or jobs) as part of our organisation team. This may be for a short time or a long time, 1 day or 2 but we will make sure that you have as much fun as the competitors.

All volunteers receive an “event volunteer” shirt, we will give you food and drink during the day and we will have an event that we can all be proud to have been involved with. We will also put you in the draw for two free entries to the 2010 event.
