Taming of the Slough 2015 - Call For Volunteers

[DH001]

The 2015 Taming of the Slough is just around the corner (Sat. Sept. 19th) and we are looking for volunteers to help with the MTB portion of the event which will be utilizing the trails at Illiniwek.

Volunteer positions needed on the day of the event are:

• Course Setup/Teardown (~5 people from 7:00-8:00 am & 11:00 am -12:00 pm)
• Course Marshals (~10 people from 8:00-11:00 am)
• First Aid Tent (~2 people from 8:00-11:00 am)

If you would like to help out, please post here. Volunteers will receive a t-shirt and free pizza at the after party at Emipre Park. Let me know the size of t-shirt you need so I can have them reserved.

Also, the Taming Tune Up Sessions start this week. The first is on Thurs. 8/27 from 5:30-7:00 pm and the next are on 9/3 and 9/10 (both Thursdays & at the same time). In the event the trails are closed, the MTB portion of the Tune Up will be cancelled. We could use a few volunteers to help mark out the course for the Tune Ups and help any riders with questions/problems. If volunteering for the Tune Ups, post up and meet at 5:00 pm at the main trailhead off of IL-84 at Illiniwek.
