Help us to celebrate 31 years of a cycling ride at Emmaus. This is our largest fundraiser of the year, and we need your help. Volunteers are needed for 3-hour shifts between 5 AM and 5 PM on Sunday, July 28, 2018. Volunteers will be used at both Northern Essex Community College (Haverhill campus) and at 8 ride rest stops.
Proceeds from this event benefit Emmaus, a non-profit housing and human services organization in Haverhill that serves homeless and formerly homeless families and single adults.
Cyclists ride 20-mile, 40-mile, 62-mile or 100-mile scenic route that will take them through Haverhill, MA, up to the seacoast of New Hampshire, and south through the North Shore of Massachusetts. Upon returning to the college, riders can enjoy delicious food prepared by local restaurants, music and stretches.
