It has been an annual tradition since the 2018 start of the Women's
Philadelphia Triathlon for our club to serve as volunteers for the Run Fill
Station. We are seeking between 10-20 volunteers to assist. If you are
available and able to assist, please click on the link below, page down to
"Run Fill Station - RESERVED GATORS" and sign up today! It's a
win/win/win!...

- Win for DelMo Elite Sports: They can confidently count on us to take
care of this station and focus on other race related details.
- Win for the Athletes: This is the only aid station on course and it
comes midway through the run at a time when many athletes need a pick me
up... Sometimes that means hydration, but more often it means someone to
lift their spirits and propel them to a victorious finish! This is a first
time triathlon for many of the participants, so we are contributing to
making this fun experience that they'll want to come back and do again!
- Win for the Gators: First, we receive $30 for each volunteer that goes
towards our operating expenses, which essentially we invest in our members
through socials, giveaway items, member gifts, etc. And besides that, it's
a heck of a lot of FUN! We sometimes have a theme and possibly even some
costumes. The club tent and flags will be there and the inflata-Gator often
makes an appearance as well. Additionally we have music and lots of energy
to support all of the athletes!
