Register for a spot at the BARPCV Boston Marathon Hydration Station
As the only RPCV community in the marathon, we are known for having the best hydration station with you, our dedicated and hard-working people.
Volunteer Registration opens on Monday, December 9th and closes by Friday, February 7th. Register ASAP so you don’t forget to do it. We only have 80 spots, and last year we had to beg the BAA (Boston Athletic Association) for leniency because we overfilled our roster! We don’t want you to be left out, so please sign up ASAP.
Pre-registration instructions below.
The marathon is Monday, April 21, 2025. Space is limited and fills fast!
Requirements
You need to commit to the entire day, from approximately 9am to 5pm, and be able to stand for most of this time. Be prepared for mixed weather. It’s challenging…but fun. Perfect for an RPCV.
Address
The April marathon station is in Brookline, near Coolidge Corner, on mile 23 of the marathon. Details will be sent to registrants.
