There are as many as 400 volunteer groups who join us over race weekend. We enjoy getting to know these school, corporate, athletic, and non-profit groups; they're an integral part of how our volunteer program operates. If you're interested in coordinating a group of 10 or more, please contact Elisabeth Worthing worthing@baa.org before registering online. Groups of 25 or more become difficult for us to assign.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Designate a Group Leader/Coordinator.

Step 2: The group leader submits his/her own personal online application first. When prompted, choose the option to “Create a Group.” Create a group name, pass code, and job preferences for the group. (Note: write down the group name and group pass code you choose). 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. When selecting job options please consider the following:

• Personal Vehicles vs. Public Transportation
• Final Examinations
• Businesses - Monday is not a holiday for all businesses
• Athletic Teams - games/matches/meets, including any potential rain-dates
• Duration of Assignments - many assignments in Hopkinton allow you to be done by noon but Boston assignments are committed through 5:00 pm

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.
