Dear TVC members,
Sara is looking for volunteers for this year's Hollenbeck's race, I know
many of you will be racing at this event. Please ask friends or family
members if they plan on coming to watch, if they would be interested in
helping out.

I helped at registration and finish line last year and had a blast (it's
always fun to listen to Glenn's various cycling tales while standing at
the finish line!) And that finish climb is really fun to watch, I have
to say that the most exciting finish last year was the Junior men (no
other group sprinted up that climb as fierce as they did!) It is
exciting to see such drive and desire!

So if you can help them out, please email Sara sb65@.... At
this point, volunteer positions are open, so you could probably take
your pick!

Binghamton Circuit Race- April 30th- We will also need volunteers
throughout the day, best part is you can volunteer during other races
and still be able to race.
We will need the most assistance at registration in the morning and at
the finish line of each race. We need about 10 pair of eyes to even
come close to identifying the finishers at this race. Thanks, Marsha

Hi FLCC,

It's that time of year again! The Hollenbeck Spring Classic Road Race is
happening on Sunday, May 7. I am starting my search for volunteers so
please email me your availability and desired job if interested. I have
already lost some of my regular volunteers to either other events or
they have moved out of town so I really need your help! Please talk to
your friends and relatives and see if they would like to come watch an
exciting event, plus help a local club for a few hours on what promises
to be a beautiful Sunday morning.

I won't be returning to sunny Ithaca until April 18, so in the meantime
please email me with your desired position (registration, pace or wheel
vehicle, finish line scorer, etc) and I'll add you to the list. Please
spread the word (announcement below) to other listserves throughout NY.

Thanks for volunteering!
Sara


FLCC's Hollenbeck Spring Classic Road Race in Virgil, NY is happening
again this year on Sunday, May 7. Proceeds from the race will be donated
to a local charity via the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority at Cornell.

In addition to the historic road course and famous cookies, we are
giving a $15.00 return of entry fee to the first three places in each
category. Cat
1/2/3 men will race 3 laps of the 22 mile course, 3/4 men and 1/2/3
women will race 2 laps, while 4/5 men, 4 women, master 35+, juniors, and
tandem will race 1 lap.

Pre-register by going
to http://www.bikereg.com/events/register.asp?eventid=3167.
Registration will also be offered on the day of the race for $15.00.
Juniors will race for $10.00. This event is a part of the 2006 Lance
Armstrong Junior Olympic Race Series.

We need your help as a volunteer for this club event and/or come out and
race! If you have a friend or family member who'd be willing to
volunteer with you or help while you're racing, we will provide all race
day volunteers with a "Race Crew" T-shirt or water bottle and food and
support during the race to those working registration, acting as corner
marshals, pace cars/wheel vans, and result tabulators. Come out, see
some great racing and support cycling in the greater
Ithaca/Binghamton/Syracuse/Rochester area.

If you have questions about the race or would like to volunteer please
contact me, Sara Barker <sb65@...>, 254-2465(w), 539-6594(h).
