Help us to celebrate 35 years of a cycling ride for Emmaus. This is our largest fundraiser of the year and we need your help.
Saturday, September 16th. Pairs of volunteers are needed to help mark the route during the afternoon. Volunteers will be given full instructions and supplies. One volunteer is needed to drive and one is needed to get out of the stopped vehicle at designated points to mark the route (i.e. sticking a sign in the ground or attaching to a telephone pole).
Location to be determined. Cyclists ride a 15-mile Family Ride, 35-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. Start and Finish are at Northern Essex Community College in Haverhill, MA.
Ideally, the same volunteers will also take down the signs on the afternoon of Sunday, September 17th at the conclusion of the ride.
