Taming of the Slough 2014 - Volunteers Needed!

[DH001]

The 2014 Taming of the Slough is a little over a month away and we are starting to make preparations to help River Action with the MTB portion of the event. If you would like to volunteer, post in this thread what you are available to do and register on the official web site: Taming Volunteer Sign Up

Taming Tune Up practice sessions [Thursday Aug. 21st & 28th and Sept. 4th @ 5:30 pm]:
We need volunteers to meet at Illiniwek to help with:

• Marking off the course (same as last year) (5:00-5:30 pm)
• Helping people with bike setup/repair/riding tips and maybe leading a couple of group rides (5:30-7:00 pm)
• Tearing down the course (7:00-7:30 pm)

The main event [Saturday September 13th]:
Meet at Illiniwek in the trailhead parking lot.

• Course setup (7:00-7:30 am)
• Course marshals (8:00-11:00 am)
• Tear down (11:00-11:30 am)
• FREE pizza and beer for volunteers at Empire Park after the event!

You will also receive a free T-shirt if you volunteer so post what size you would like.

I suspect there will be a lot of people who won't be able to make it to the last two Tune Up sessions because of the Copper Harbor trip. If you are available during this time let me know so I can get you some caution tape for marking the course.
