Volunteers Needed
The SoCal League runs predominantly on volunteers and has room for Race Volunteer Staffers during the 2019 season. What is a Race Volunteer Staffer? It’s a person who volunteers at all (or most) races to help run KEY areas. These folks gain experience and get a few perks along the way. Positions are available in Course Setup, Infield Setup, Registration, Merchandise, Parking, Timing, Media, and Safety. Email the Volunteer Coordinator at [email protected] with questions. If you’re a parent that’s going to spend the weekend at the race you may as well keep yourself engaged and help YOUR offspring have the BEST experience possible.
Girls Riding Together Program
The SoCal League will be rolling out a new GRiT (Girls Riding Together) program. The GRiT program should help get #MoreGirlsOnBikes.
