The Sawtooth Relay like all races and fun runs is not possible without the generous assistance of many volunteers and we offer our sincere thanks for your help. Volunteers will receive an embroidered, short sleeve t-shirt. After they have completed their assignment they are welcome to join their team for food, drink and music at Atkinson Park, Ketchum.

A volunteer that is required by the Sawtooth Relay assists the race organization. A van driver for your team is not a volunteer for the race organization.

A volunteer completes a registration form and it must be postmarked by Wednesday, May 14. Volunteer forms postmarked after this date require a $10 late fee.

A team will be folded after May 31 if it is required to provide a volunteer and fails to submit a volunteer form by this date. There are no refunds for folded teams.

A volunteer must:

  • Be a minimum of 18 years of age,
  • Work a minimum of 4 hours,
  • Be able and willing to perform the tasks assigned, including lifting and carrying 30 lb. boxes, standing for the entire shift,
  • Be willing to work in the very early morning,
  • Provide their own transportation to and from the site,
  • Check in and out with race officials at the assigned location,
  • Bring warm clothes, food, and drink,
  • Leave children and dogs at home.

A volunteer is required from each team that has at least one teammate living within:

  • 60 miles from Boise including Mountain Home, Melba, Marsing, Payette and to the Oregon border,
  • or 100 miles from Sun Valley including Twin Falls, Hazelton, Murtaugh, Buhl, Glenns Ferry, Mackay, Arco and the INEEL border,
  • or 100 miles from Stanley including Lowman and Challis.

If a volunteer is required and the team fails to provide a volunteer the team will be disqualified and will not be allowed to start.

If the volunteer fails to show up on time at the assigned location, sign in with the volunteer coordinator, work the entire shift as assigned, and sign out with the volunteer coordinator, the team will be disqualified.

It is the responsibility of the team to find a volunteer replacement if needed.

Jobs assigned will be located at the start in Stanley, the finish in Ketchum, and at intersections and the 11 exchange sites along the course.

Teams that send in complete, readable athlete and volunteer forms by May 14 can request a volunteer assignment.

  • Start in Stanley Saturday morning
