MARQUETTE -- As the Teal Lake Triathlon approaches the YMCA of Marquette is looking for volunteers.

The triathlon features a 20k bike, 5k run and quarter mile swim at Teal Lake in Negaunee.  There's also a kids triathlon for ages 5 to 14.  Volunteers are needed for a variety of areas.  They include set up, aid stations and lifeguard duty among others.

"We're about half way with volunteers, I would love another 25 to 30 volunteers and families are welcome if you want to bring your kids out on the course it's a great family community event to come out and get some exercise and just give back to the community," said YMCA Organizer Jenna Zdunek.

Online registration for the race ends on July 13th, the cost for individuals is $45, and $85 for teams.  For more information on how you can volunteer or sign up for the race you can contact the YMCA of Marquette at (906) 227-9622 or click here.
