Description

The Boru 3 Peaks is an annual charity walk/run on the hills surrounding Lough Derg lake. One of the hills is in Co. Clare, Moylussa 531 metres and two of them are in Co. Tipperary, Tountinna 457 metres and Keeper Hill 694 metres.

It is not possible to run the event without the help of many volunteers.

Your job will be to help with Marshalling/Stewarding. No prior experience necessary. We will brief beforehand on exactly what to do. Marshalling involves directing the runners/walkers in the right direction so they don’t get lost, offering encouragement and sometimes water. You will not be on your own you will be part of a team of two or three people.

We will provide transport to and from the event but we have limited spaces as our bus can only take 18 people. If you have your own transport to get to the event please informs us.
