Our Volunteers

We are extremely grateful to all the people and organizations that continue to support the Lost Lake Run. Without the support of the following people and organizations, the Lost Lake Run would not be possible.

  • Cooking and kitchen support
  • Award sorting and distribution
  • Chip retrieval and T-shirt distribution
  • Race results posting
  • Announcements
  • Parking lot attendants
  • Race Day setup
  • Race Day cleanup


Trail Clearing

We are offering free registration to the first 25 volunteers for trail clearing.  Trail clearing is done on the first Saturday of August.  This year trail clearing will be done on Saturday August 5, 2023.  If you are interested in trail clearing, send an email to LostLakeRun@gmail.com.  If you are selected for trail clearing, more detailed information will follow as we near August.

For those that are assisting with trail clearing, the following items are recommended:

  • If you have a gas powered weed wacker that you could bring with you, please let us know when you register so that we can reduce the number we will need to rent.
  • Plastic or metal tined hay rake or a metal yard rake, lawn rakes don’t work, not worth bringing
  • Gloves
  • Bug repellant, bug netting
  • Long Pants and long sleeves
  • Snack food
  • Water
  • Ear plugs

Trail Top Volunteers

In 2012, a group of  Boy Scouts and their parents provided trail-top support during the Lost Lake Run. Below are some photos that chronicle their experience.
