Around the Crown 10K presented by Truist invites you to be part of Charlotte's vibrant community during Labor Day Weekend. Whether you're stepping onto the starting line or cheering from behind, there are plenty of ways for everyone to contribute and experience the spirit of this event. Volunteers play a crucial role in ensuring that runners have an enjoyable and smooth race day. Opportunities abound across various roles such as managing start and finish lines, assisting with packet pick-up, providing information at key points along the course, and setting up water stations. Your presence brings energy to the crowds and encouragement to每一位志愿者都在赛事中扮演着重要角色，无论是管理起终点线、协助领取参赛包还是在赛道上的各个站点提供信息和水站设置。您的存在为现场观众带来了活力，并鼓励了跑者们一路向前。 Volunteering also comes with its own set of perks. As a token of appreciation, all volunteers will receive the Recover Brands Volunteer Tee and enjoy a healthy meal or coffee from Summit Coffee depending on their shift's duration and timing. Additionally, there’s an exclusive offer for next year: a discounted entry fee to the 2027 Around the Crown 10K. The race organizers are deeply grateful to all those who dedicate their time and enthusiasm to making this community event possible each year. Your contributions help create memorable moments for runners as they navigate through Charlotte's scenic routes, fostering unity and camaraderie among participants and supporters alike. Volunteers not only enhance the experience of others but also leave with a sense of fulfillment knowing that they've made a meaningful impact on their city’s running community. Join us this Labor Day Weekend to be part of something special in Charlotte!
