What can you do?
We need baked goods-if you enjoy baking bars or cookies, consider baking an extra batch and dropping it off at the ICHS before 5:30 p.m. on Friday, May 2nd. Cycling enthusiasts and little bicyclists-to-be LOVE having home baked goods at the rest stops when biking their way through the course-show them Iowa County residents make the best ones!
Do
you enjoy meeting people? We need volunteers to help register cyclists and to man the rest stops. You
will get to meet the many cyclists, see how the ride is going and share stories.
You serve as an Iowa County Humane Society representative to help promote a
good cause through your friendliness and helpfulness.
Are you Iowa County "back roads savvy"? Do you know the Iowa County back roads like the back of your hand? We need people to help set up route signs the day before the ride, take down route signs at the end of the ride and possibly make runs to the various rest stops the day of the ride.
Sponsorship-We need donations! We would like to get company sponsorship from area businesses. We can put you company name on shirts, put your company brochures/coupons in our "goodie bags" among other things.
