MRA Corner Marshal Training 2015
The MRA is currently seeking Corner Marshals for our 2015 race season. We welcome back anyone from previous seasons willing to continue devoting time and energy so that we can continue to race knowing that there are individuals looking out for the safety of the racers. We also welcome individuals who might be out supporting racers but might also be willing to take on a new challenge to support the racers in a more official capacity. The importance of corner marshals is paramount for the running of races as without them we CANNOT RACE. The MRA is especially interested in a consistent staff of Corner Marshals while also developing a pool of qualified individuals that could be relied upon to stand in for the Marshal positions when necessary.
