The Only Place You Can Get This Much Energy and Excitement for Free!

Susan Montgomery has volunteered for the Peachtree for 30+ years. "At the water stations, families can all work together at the same assignment and have a great view and place to cheer on family and friends! We have had several families with three generations of volunteers. It's a tradition in our family to either run or volunteer." she said.

Celebrate with Susan and start your own family tradition by volunteering this year. Choose to volunteer on one or both days of the event - July 3 and July 4! Volunteers will receive a different color T-Shirt for each event day.
