Join our Volunteer Green Team!
Be part of the energy, excitement, and community spirit that make the Holland Haven Marathon unforgettable. Our race doesn’t happen without the dedication of over 150 incredible volunteers — and this year, we want YOU on the Green Team!
💚 Why Volunteer?
Volunteering is one of the best ways to give back to your community while having a genuinely fun and rewarding day. As a Green Team volunteer, you’ll help support healthy living, encourage runners of all levels, and contribute to fundraising for local charities.
🙌 There’s a Role for Everyone
Whether you love high-energy action at the center of the race or prefer behind-the-scenes support, we have a position that fits your style.
Volunteering is perfect for:
Individuals wanting a meaningful way to give back
Families, schools, clubs, and civic groups
Students looking to earn community service hours (you’ll get hours and a free green team shirt!)
🌟 Be Part of Race Day Magic
Grab your friends, bring your enthusiasm, and join us on Sunday, September 13th for an amazing day along the Lake Michigan shoreline. As a Green Team member, you’ll help create the best racing experience of our runners’ lives — and your energy truly makes all the difference.
