Volunteer Information:

We need YOU as a Run Bentonville Volunteer! On race days we have volunteer opportunities as Course Marshals, Finish Line Help and our Ready For Anything Team.

Course Marshals  must be 18+ (or have supervision of an adult). Course marshals are responsible for keeping vehicles off of the course to keep the runners safe. This may mean helping drivers re-route to their destination away from the course, or simply holding traffic until the course reopens if there's not an alternate route available. Safety vests are required and are available at the Bentonville Community Center and each event if a volunteer doesn't own one. If you're interested in volunteering, check out our signup (coming soon)!

The race begins at 8:00am. Please allow yourself enough time to park and get to the starting area just North of the Downtown Bentonville Square. There is a variety of free public parking lots in the Downtown Bentonville area that are easily accessible to the Square.
