About
Join the fun in our 8th Ripple Run 5K + Nonprofit Expo as a volunteer and be a part of something great! The race will be in Blackburn Park in Brookhaven on Sunday, March 19th
The 5K run is an AJC Peachtree Road Race Qualifying Event and the 1K run/walk is stroller & dog-friendly. The Nonprofit Expo at the end of the race will feature 15 nonprofits that host their own mini-service projects related to their missions.
All Sunday volunteers need to check-in at 7:00 am at the Volunteer Check-In Table. Your shift may start a bit later, but there will be a brief orientation session to review each job description. You will receive a short-sleeved teal-colored volunteer t-shirt. Depending on the morning temperature, you may want to wear a long-sleeved shirt underneath.
