Volunteer

Fat Dog would not be possible without an army of dedicated volunteers!  On race weekend, we need people to help with aid stations, finish line, wilderness first aid (usually along with aid station assistance), package pickup, and sweeping the course.  Also, before the race, some jobs include flagging, supply drops and water drops to the remote hike in aid stations as well as trail maintenance.  Work on race weekend is typically done in shifts. If volunteering, you will receive a final email with details about locations and times. Please fill in this form to give us your contact info as well as your availability, and we will plug you in!

The Volunteer Guide for 2024 is posted for reference; Current guide to be released Spring 2025.
