Photo: Tour of the Gila 2014 Volunteer Shirt

Check out the volunteer shirt for the 2014 Tour of the Gila. These are free to all the volunteers – over 600 were given out last year! We are in need of many more people for the race during the period of April 30- May 4. Volunteers are also treated to a party following the race on Sunday, with live music, pizza, beer and soda.

How can you help?

• • Be a support driver – many different types of positions – carrying an official, leading out a category, an easy drive to "sweep" after a category; or handing out wheels to cyclists. Gas costs are covered by the race.
  • Course marshal - direct traffic at intersections (especially on Saturday during the Downtown races).
  • Set up signs.
  • Host racers. Host housing is a terrific way to involve yourself and get to know racers. They need a place to sleep, bathroom access and kitchen use (racers prepare their own food).
  • Other odd jobs. Distribution of posters, flyers, t-shirts. Team helpers. First aid.

Thanks to the hundreds of volunteers that make this event happen!
