Volunteering at the Elephant Trail Race is a great way to get involved behind the scenes at one of Australia’s most iconic trail races. It is another way to give back. There are lots of reasons to volunteer. You may not be a runner, but have family or friends that are and you have come along to support them, why not fill in the time and volunteer, if you are a trail runner and injured or have another race your preparing for and don’t want to get injured, why not volunteer and still be apart of the event in a different way.

Volunteering at ETR, you get to meet loads of like-minded people who come from all walks of life, all sorts of backgrounds and who bring a huge range of trail experience to the event. In return our volunteers become part of our ETR family, and leave ETR with unforgettable experiences and often lots of new friends for life. A lifetime of memories.
