Description

Join Columbus Gives Back in volunteering for "The Dash" fundraiser for the Central Ohio Diabetes Association Our friends at the Central Ohio Diabetes Association are putting on a 5K fundraiser called "The Dash". The Dash supports Camp Hamwi and the youth & family programs of the Central Ohio Diabetes Association What: The volunteer roles we are looking to fill are for course & traffic control. As far as the course goes, we are looking to have volunteers stationed throughout the course to assist with directing runners/walkers in the correct direction and cheer them on. For traffic control, volunteers are needed to stand by the different parking lot entrances to caution cars that we have a 5K in progress. Part of the race is on a private road in the park and the park is still open to the public, but we don’t foresee much traffic in November. Where:  Roger A.
