Volunteer Form:  The Berryman Adventure, 2023
We have some specific jobs and shifts that need to be covered to staff the race.  Please answer the questions below to indicate your availability.  Please select all jobs you would be willing and able to do, even if you select jobs that conflict.  Someone will get back with you to verify your actual assignment.

NOTE:  This year, the 18 hour race will have a MIDNIGHT START, so we will have volunteer needs on the "graveyard shift" on Friday night to Saturday morning.  And Friday will be extra hectic.  So if you have the ability to take a vacation day from your day job on March 31, and either help that day or sleep that day (we'll provide you a room at Echo Bluff), that would be a huge help!!

 Note: after 12/31, Echo Bluff will open their lodge and cabins to the public and it will likely sell out quickly.  To make your own lodging reservations at Echo Bluff prior to 12/31/22, call their front desk at (573) 531-7001 and tell them you are with The Berryman Adventure.

What is your lodging plan for race weekend?
Cell phone coverage is very sketchy in the Echo Bluff  area.  Please let us know your cell carrier.

Check-in team:  You will sit in the lobby of the Echo Bluff lodge and process the incoming racers.  That includes handing out swag-bags, collecting waivers, verifying registration, etc.   Then you'll verify the paperwork and package for submission.  I need at least 4 people at each shift.
Post-race Food crew:  Assist with setting up, serving, and cleaning up after the post-race food at race HQ (somewhere within the Echo Bluff campus).
Special gear / skills:  Please let us know if you have any of the following gear or skills you are willing to offer to support the race on April 1.
Race coverage time slot availability:  Check all the time slots you are willing to possibly cover.  You would be assigned only one of these unless we contact you to discuss.
"Transition Areas" (TA's) are stations where racers arrive to check in with staff, possibly have their gear checked by staff, and often transition from one mode of transport to another.  Examples include a canoe put-in point, or a bike drop point.  We need people to staff these TA's, and these stations may austere.  We need to know what you are willing and able to do.  No judgement here!  Just be honest and check all the boxes that apply.  For all stations you will have your vehicle with you, and some form of communication.  At a minimum, you will have a hand-held radio to communicate with a relay station.
Rover:  This person drives or rides around in a vehicle (yours, ideally), stays in contact with HQ, and deals with issues on the course.  You'll photograph racers you encounter, respond to requests for assistance, support the remote staff at the transition areas, and other duties as assigned.  Ideally there will be two in the vehicle (driver an assistant).  Ideally you would use your own vehicle, and have a bike rack or truck bed and extra seats (backseat or extended cab) for a racer or two that need a ride.
Late crew:  The late crew arrives at race HQ as the race breaks up, to help clean the campsite and pack the gear.  The rest of the team is exhausted at that point, so we need fresh help make sure we close things down well.  Some may go back to Rolla to re-stow the club gear in the storage locker Saturday night.  Others will sleep over, and on Sunday morning, in the daylight, will go back through the site and make sure everything looks good.
