Run, Jump, Throw is a nationally recognized event through USA Track and Field, where kids have the opportunity to participate in a variety track and field of activities and featuring Olympians to meet the kids and help instruct. Volunteers will help as station hosts, with topics like training, running, and throwing events, within a 10-station rotation for 150+ kids total. Volunteers will also assist with event set up and tear down and most of all, have fun! No athletic experience needed.
