LEAPFROG
The Banff Jasper Relay’s goal is having fewer volunteers and utilizing their time more effectively by having them leapfrog the runners and work at more than one exchange point. That is why we created the LEAPFROG system of volunteering.
People that volunteer for this assignment will be busy all day. The Banff Jasper Relay may be provided accommodation in Jasper (four people per room) for those who volunteer for a LEAPFROG assignment.
If you are interested in being part of a leapfrog team, please signup on our volunteer page.
