Free lunch and post work BBQ provided.
July 26th – Volunteers needed for Ragnar race
We’ve partnered with the Ragnar Trail Relay Run happening at Sierra-at-Tahoe. We are their non-profit beneficiary but we need to rally some volunteers to make it happen! We’ll get a $120 donation per volunteer! We need 25 volunteers on Friday, July 26 from 8am-5pm. Do the math and that’s $3k! Since we’re still working on raising the Saleforce Foundation match to build Corral Trail, that $3,000 will turn into $6,000! TAMBA Volunteers get an event t-shirt as well as a TAMBA bag of goodies including a TAMBA pint glass, TAMBA socks, TAMBA water bottle and a gift card for a free bike tune-up at Sports LTD! Jobs include staffing the registration/check-in table, helping runners find their campsite, and parking cars in the parking lots. Sign up on the Ragnar volunteer page. Thanks in advance for helping us help trails!
