MARSHAL  RULES

1. BACK TO THE COURSE-EYES ON THE CROWD: The first and foremost duty of a marshal is to separate the racers and the race course activities and actions of the general public. Potential dangers to racers and spectators will come from the crowd not from the course. Although the action may be exciting and you may have the best seat in the house, it is not your job to watch the race.

2. YOU ARE A MARSHAL, NOT A POLICEMAN: Reread that section of these guidelines if you have questions.

3. BE ALERT: It only takes seconds to turn a potential problem into a disaster and your job is to avert the problem before the disaster occurs.

4. Know your schedule and be on time: it is crucial for every marshal to be on time. Whether it is for a meeting, transportation or arriving on site, you should always be prompt. Other people are depending on you to be there.

5. KNOW DAILY RACE INFORMATION: Spectators will want to know who the leaders are, where the next day's stage is, when the racers are arriving/leaving, and other general race information. Take a little time each morning to catch up on all the new information.

6. KNOW WHERE THE TOILETS ARE: Portable toilets will be at every race START/FINISH. While it may be one of the most boring questions you will be asked, the people doing the asking will be mighty grateful for the information.

ABOVE ALL, HAVE FUN AND ENJOY YOUR WORK AS A ROAD MARSHAL!
