Volunteer Registration
oregon cascades 100 race aid station
An exciting trail run is happening this month in Central Oregon on Saturday, August 24- the Oregon Cascades 100. Not only is the race 100 miles- it also has roughly 11,000 ft of gain and 11,000 ft of loss. Racers have up to 32 hours to finish.
Common Ground is partnering with the event for a third year to volunteer at 1 of the 13 aid stations on the race. We will serve together by providing trail runners with food, drinks, and aid at a busy aid station that runners go by at mile 40. Shifts are available from 10 am to 6 pm on Saturday, August 24, with the biggest need for volunteers being from 12-4 pm. Feel free to come for an hour, a few, or all day depending on your availability. Aid station is located near Virginia Meissner Sno Park outside of Bend.
This year, our theme for the aid station is 80's & 90's Throwback! Costumes and retro outfits are encouraged for volunteers! Break out those fanny packs, tutus, and bright colors! Kids and families are welcome to come and volunteer together.
A high clearance vehicle is recommended but not required for access to the aid station. You will be driving 4-miles on forest service roads that do have some mild to moderate rocks and holes. Directions to the aid station and more information will be provided by email to signed up volunteers on the week of the race. See ya there!
Interested in volunteering for this service event? Please take a moment to sign up below. We will be reaching out to you with more info and directions to the service event. Our Aid Station is expected to be present from 10 am to 6 pm, so we have divided the time into slots to make it easier, but you’re welcome to stay for however long you want! It’s a party!
