VOLUNTEERS:

 

 

Volunteer course marshals should be dressed in bright reflective traffic control attire (either shirts or vests).  The course marshals will walk along the edges of the walkers, ensuring that all participants stay in the right hand lanes of the streets, allowing oncoming vehicles to pass.  Event organizers must provide an adequate number of course marshals to adequately control their expected number of participants.
