Volunteers Needed
Route Marking for Wheels for Meals Ride
Friday, August 19, 2022
Note: Ride is Saturday, August 20, route marking needs to be done the day before, on August 19
Note: The usual Friday "Beer Trail" ride has been moved to Thursday, Aug. 18 so that riders can participate in the Friday Route Marking activity.
Sussex Cyclists is lending its support of the Wheels for Meals Fundraising ride on August 20. We have helped with publicity, route planning, and other aspects of the ride in order to both help this excellent organization continue its work, and at the same time provide an excellent ride experience for participants.
At this time we need volunteers to place Route Arrows to mark the route. This will be done the day before the ride.
The suggested plan is this:
Marking volunteers meet at 9:00 AM Hudson Fields.
Marking teams will be formed. You may also form a team before the 9:00 meeting.
Note: We suggest teams of three or four. 1. Driver, 2. The Route arrow placer(s) 3. Safety Monitor.
Marking assignments will be determined and Route Arrows distributed at the 9:00 meeting. Teams will then begin marking the assigned portion of the route.
Tentatively the route has been divided onto 5 sections. If we have less than 5 teams, then a team or teams may volunteer to mark more than one section.
You may use the registration link more than once to register others for the activity. Volunteers do not need to be Sussex Cyclist Members. Friends and family are welcome to volunteer for this activity. You can also email names of others who would like to help to: SussexCycleKurp@gmail.com
After marking the routes, teams may choose to de-brief over some beverages at a nearby establishment.
Thanks.
