Agency: Beaches Fine Arts Series

Description: The triathlon enables the Beaches Fine Arts Series, to offer free concerts and visual art exhibits to the community and education outreach programs to local schools in Jacksonville throughout the year.

Volunteers assist with a variety of duties: race bag stuffing, registration, street marshal, refreshment servers, general gopher duties. Some opportunities prior to the event, most day-of the event.

This is an exciting, fast paced event. Some posts require individuals with high level of mobility. This is an outdoor event in the summer heat and direct sun exposure, so we encourage individuals to wear hat, comfortable shoes, sunscreen, and glasses. Some posts will require individuals to arrive before race starts, approximately 5:30 AM. Race breakdown requires individuals to be at race site until approximately 10:30 AM. Upon sign up, volunteers will receive a free t-shirt, identifying them as a volunteer. There is a Volunteer Kick Off Party scheduled at the beginning of the season and a Volunteer Appreciation Party will be held at the end of the race season.
