Event Information: Group Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteering in Groups

Parties of two or more wishing to volunteer at the same job assignment should create a group to ensure that your party will all be placed together at the same job assignment. Group members will receive separate correspondence from the B.A.A. and are individually responsible for making sure they are aware of B.A.A. policies and procedures.  

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Designate a Group Leader.

Step 2: The group leader fills out his/her own personal application. In doing so, the group leader will be given the option to “Create a Group.” The group leader should enter a group name, pass code, and job preferences for the group. (Note: write down the group name and group pass code you choose). After creating the group the leader will complete the remainder of the application and submit. Make sure to write down the on screen confirmation number. Seeing this number on-screen is indication that the group has successfully been created.

Step 3: The group leader will communicate the group name and pass code to the group members.

Step 4: Every group member must complete the online application individually. When prompted, group members should choose the option to “Join a Group.” Then find the group name in the drop down list and enter the pass code. Complete the remainder of the application and submit. Make sure to write down the on-screen confirmation number. Seeing this number on-screen is indication that you have successfully completed the application process.

For more information, or before registering a group of 10 or more, please contact Elisabeth Worthing worthing@baa.org. Groups of 25 or more become difficult for us to assign.

2010 - The Hoyts

When many think of the Boston Marathon, they think of Team Hoyt, the father/son team of Dick and Rick who have participated in their unique way 28 times. Dick was 69 at the 2010 Boston Marathon.
