As we’ve previously mentioned in the GRAMP Gossip emails* we are planning to have a GRAMP presence at the Hazlehead Parkrun on Saturday 17th May (aka in Parkrun parlance as a takeover.)
This is so we can advertise the club to parkrunners/walkers and their families and promote our summer series events. Plus we hope that SOA will be hosting a taster session for runners on Thursday 22nd May at Hazlehead which we’ll also promote.
We would be delighted to see as many GRAMP members as possible signing up as volunteers for this Parkrun, then coming along in your GRAMP kit (if you have some) and hopefully spreading the word to other runners/walkers about how much fun orienteering is!
If you’ve not volunteered at Parkrun before, it’s very easy to do and you’ll get instructions on the day.
Below is a link to the roster of vacant positions – it would be good if there were a few GRAMP members at the finish area so we can point people in the direction of our flyers and QR codes – so maybe ask to be a barcode scanner. But feel free to choose another role if you wish.
(Bar code scanners and timers will need to download the parkrun app before the event.)

You will need to send an email to hazlehead@parkrun.com and tell them which position you’d like to do and include your Parkrun number. If you don’t already have a parkrun number you will need to register.
The roster can sometimes fill up fairly quickly so please sign up as soon as you can.
Any questions please get in touch.
