Buffalo Marathon Seeks Volunteers for This Weekend’s Race!

People have trained months and months to get ready for this weekend's Buffalo Marathon. The long-standing tradition is one of the larger marathons in the country and continues on Sunday, May 29 race at 6:30 a.m., but the organizers can still use a little help!

Believe it or not, it takes around 1500 volunteers to make the Buffalo Marathon, Half Marathon and Marathon relay teams run smoothly.

Volunteers receive an "Awesome Volunteer" tech shirt as a thank-you for donating your time at the event, as well as an invitation to the annual post-marathon volunteer appreciation party and a coupon for a Dunkins' Donuts Coffee. The 6,000 or more "thank you's" you receive from runners are priceless!
