Circle City BMX Volunteers Needed
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Circle City BMX is operated and maintained entirely by volunteers and we are always looking for help.
We can't do it without your help and we thank you in advance!
Uncover & re-cover the Track - In order to maintain our race track in great shape we keep the Track covered with Tarps between Practices and Races and Volunteers are needed prior and after the Race or Practice to uncover and re-cover the Track. Helping hands are very much appreciated.
We need to fill the following volunteer positions at every race in order to run the race.
Corner Marshals: Three corner marshals are required per race. They stand on the top of each of the three corners of the track. They are responsible for monitoring the conduct of the riders on the track and signaling the referee and other race officials with flags when a rider is down or when there are conditions that warrant the attention of the officials.
Scorers: Three scorers are required per race. The scorers are responsible for writing the finish position of every rider as he crosses the finish line in each race. The official finish positions of each race are determined by a majority of the finish line scorers.
Stager: The staging official maintains order in the staging lanes and helps the racers progress to the starting gate. A visiual check for proper safety equipment is done in staging. The stager announces moto numbers, age groups, and checks the rider's names on moto sheets. Announcer: The announcer officites with commentary over the PA systen once the race gate drops until the last rider crossed the finish line! The Announcer also lets the rider know when the Moto & Main's are posted on the board before races start.
Concessions; 50/50 raffle ticket sales; t-shirt sales: We can also always use help at conncessions, with the 50/50 raffle, and at the t-shirt table. Come on by and lend a hand. The track concession stand is one of the most important volunteer positions we have because concessions are the main source of revenue for the track.
The funds raised from the sale of Gatorades, coffee, hot chocolates, Popsicles, Chips and Candy etc. that all of our generous and hungry riders, family, and friends purchase pay for 100% of the track maintenance, utilities, trophies, give-a ways, and the year end banquet.
Sponsorship Coordinators: Circle City BMX needs your help selling sponsorship packages to allow us to maintain the track on a yearly basis. If you have sales experiance or just plain like to talk to people, man do we have an opportunity for you! See one of our track dirrector or board member for sponsership details.
