Millennium Marathon Volunteers Tour Race Route

Volunteers of the Accra Millennium Marathon 2016 were on Thursday, taken through the 21Km race route ahead of Saturday’s event.

The aim of the tour was to familiarize the volunteers, most of whom will serve as water and ribbon distributors and officiating assistants to the race roads.

The tour begun as early as 6:00am in the morning at the independence square in Accra, and the team of volunteers made intermittent stoppages at various water and ribbon distribution points.

The 21Km tour ended after close to an hour at the independence square before a similar exercise was embarked upon for the 5km fun run route.

After the two tours, the volunteers were taking through lessons on what is required of them before, during and after Saturday’s Marathon while officials also answered questions posed by the volunteers.

The route tour is the last of a series of activities by the Millennium Marathon Volunteers, most of whom are members of the Dansoman branch of the Junior Chamber International (JCI).
