This year, you get to wear your silly green outfits 2 days in a row…once on St. Patty’s Day and again the next day for the Publix Georgia Marathon! The race will come through our city on Sunday, March 18, and Decatur invites you to participate as a hydration and/or cheering volunteer.
Volunteers are needed to staff two Hydration Stations, one at the East Lake MARTA station and one in downtown Decatur. Your duties will be to hand out water to the runners and to cheer them on. To volunteer for the Hydration Stations please contact Katie Abel at katie.abel@decaturga.com.
Cheering Station Volunteers
Volunteers are needed at the official cheering station on Ponce de Leon adjacent to the Old Courthouse Square and should arrive at 7:30 a.m. on March 18 to help cheer the runners on. The City of Decatur has won over $17,000 for having the best cheering section over the years so let’s keep it up! Don your GREEN clothes and come out with noise makers, signs, and/or musical instruments. Let’s make sure the runners never forget Decatur!
