Volunteers Needed! 🚴‍♀️🚴🏾🚴🏽‍♂️

It’s coming on that time of year! The Burlington Criterium needs you! Please click the link below to volunteer.

Thanks,

Jared Katz

The biggest hurdle I anticipate is volunteer numbers. It takes roughly the following to put on the race:

Setup - 20 volunteers
Shifts 1, 2, 3 - 24 volunteers
Teardown - 20 volunteers

In total, that's 112 volunteering shifts. Many people combine course setup with shift 1 or shift 3 with teardown, so we typically need around 85 volunteers in total.

We have 17 so far after I did one email to GMBC. If you're able to share this out with any of your circles to get the volunteer numbers up, that would be great. I can do my best to fill the shifts through outreach, but if each person is able to pull an additional 5-7 people, we will make out way to a well-staffed event.

Link here for the signup form.

Thank you so much for volunteering for this year's Burlington Criterium. This race is possible because of all the enthusiastic community support we get year after year. We're extremely excited to be back in Burlington on the Classic Criterium course that has enthralled the city for decades. This is....
