The Mission Inn Run is celebrating its 32nd year of health oriented family activities. We need over 250 volunteers to bring this event to downtown Riverside—it’s a great way to participate, earn community service hours and help your community. We hope you will join us as a volunteer.
All proceeds from the Mission Inn Run benefit the not-for profit Mission Foundation & Museum and its educational outreach programs.
We have all sorts of tasks that need doing – setting up and breaking down tables and chairs, handing out T-shirts, pouring water for runners on the course, pulling tabs from the runners as they cross the finish line, helping clean up, etc. The various jobs have different hours but we need people from 4AM to 2PM. You can work all or part of the time.
Please call Virginia, at 951-781-8241 to get a job assignment and what time to report. You may also email her at help@missioninnmuseum.com
The Foundation will confirm community service hours for students who volunteer.
More Questions? Come to the volunteer orientation at our pre-registration day – Saturday,October 31st , between 10am and 2pm. Pick up your volunteer T-shirt, meet other volunteers, learn the job early, see where it all happens. Enter our drawing for Mission Inn gift certificates! It all happens at the Mission Inn Museum, 3696 Main Street, at the hotel, corner of Mission Inn Avenue and the Main Street pedestrian mall.
