Now that you’ve marked your calendar for this year’s Stampede & Soar Color Run (Sunday, April 2, 9-11 a.m.), it’s time to pick a volunteer assignment!

From handing out T-shirts to helping set up and take down the course, photographing the fun, managing games, and more, there’s a job for everyone! Central students are also invited to help out — a great way to get volunteer hours and give back to the community! Spots are short and fun; find yours here today.
