Athens Marathon 2014: Call For Volunteer Music Bands, Musicians To Support Runners

The organizing committee of the “Athens Marathon. The Authentic” has put out a call for volunteer music bands and individual musicians to give rhythm and support to the runners of the 32nd marathon event.
On 9 November 2014, all eyes will be on Athens and the 32rd Athens Marathon, on the original course of 42,195m from Marathonas to the Panathinaikon Stadium. The participating runners from all over the world are asked to try their best, reaching in many cases the ultimate of their human will and resources.
Bands and musicians are invited to offer their volunteer support and be present somewhere along the Marathon course or in Athens center and create a festive mood for participants and spectators of the event.
“Besides the purely sport aspect of the Athens Marathon event, this is a city celebration in which everyone plays his part encouraging the runners, applauding, cheering, dancing and singing,” the organizing committee said.
The call is open for amateur music bands, school music groups, municipal philharmonic groups, individual musicians, dancing groups and others.
Those interested can contact Dimitris Kondylis (Athens Marathon Music Project Manger, +30 210 9657947, +30 6973 032425) to learn how and where they may participate in the initiative.
