Volunteers

Our events depends on having timely and reliable help to setup and takedown the courses. For private venues, setup will happen on the Friday before and for public property courses this will be the morning of the event. This year we’ll be reinstating a volunteer slot system to be filled in at registration where you will be asked to sign up for one or two setups and/or takedowns over the season. Volunteering will be for U17 and older.Again, your participation with setup and takedown is vitally important to the success of our events.

Race chips

If you still have your old CrossMgr timing chips, please return them to the Cyclery or at number pick-up. They aren’t cheap and can be re-programmed and reused. There are no overdue fees; no one will shame you for returning your chip late.
