Some amazing Decatur residents are heading up the Hydration Station for the Publix Marathon (formerly the ING Marathon) at mile maker 11! This is on College Drive where the race enters the City of Decatur in Oakhurst – right under the overpass for the East Lake Marta station.
Runners in downtown Decatur
We need volunteers to help hand out water. The race is March 23rd (Sunday), and you would be volunteering for a segment of time from about 6:30 am until 10:30 am, or any portion of that time you can commit to. Your duties would be to prepare tables with cups of water and PowerAde and hand them out as the runners pass, to help clean up and to CHEER!!! KIDS ARE WELCOME AND ENCOURAGED TO HELP!

Please help if you can! The instructions for registering as a volunteer are as follows, but remember you gotta go on-line to register, since we are supposed to have a certain number of volunteers or the organizers start to panic. Also, this ensures you get a free t-shirt! PLEASE REGISTER FOR EACH PARTICIPANT – SO IF YOU ARE A PARENT AND CHILD, REGISTER FOR EACH OF YOU!!
Access the Group Volunteer Registration page directly from the following link:
