Volunteer

Race days would not be possible without the incredible work of our volunteers! Spend part of the day supporting inspirational athletes. It takes a “village” to put on quality mountain bike races.
Many parents and cycling enthusiasts find helping with race production to be a fun and rewarding experience. Thank you in advance for your valuable assistance.
There are venue and course set-up opportunities Friday before the races, as well as many volunteer opportunities on Sunday when all the action occurs.

Volunteer Positions Available
