Below are the jobs we need help with each day and an approximation of what time frame each job requires. Feel free to contact Roger at the shop 231-2212 with a job you are willing to do. Even if you can only work a few hours or a partial "shift" your help will be appreciated. If you are unsure about what to do let Roger (231-2212) know when you can work and he will find a suitable job for you. Many of these jobs don't require any special skills, we mostly need people willing to spend some time outside watching a bike race!
Anyone volunteering should bring a lawn chair, sunscreen and waterbottle. All volunteers get a schweeet T-Shirt!
