McGill Race May 28th VOLUNTEERS
The race has been confirmed and will be happening in Ville Saint Laurent
An EPIC 5 corner criterium, with one 180 degree turn.
I am making an open call for volunteers to be there the day of the Race.
We need people to stand on corners, direct traffic, run the registration booth, flip burgers, sell drinks etc.
There will be no 50 or 75% signup. We need to be able to count on people. We will assign people jobs as we get closer and have a better idea of what needs the most man power.
We are also looking for a few to be responsible for groups of volunteers (Traffic, Food, Registration etc). The time commitment will be larger and include meetings every week leading up to the race. PM me and Scott if you feel up to this task.
I'm hoping for a swarm of eager people.

Pumped! My girlfriend is going to volunteer too.
i really wish i could. however, i'll be out of the country... so i guess i can't complain too much. have fun everybody!!! make it awesome!
I am currently slated to work the weekend of the 27th and 28th. I'm done my shift on the 28th at 8am, I need sleep, but I'll try my best to show up mid-day (don't count on me).
Same as victoria, I wish I could be there, but I'll be out of the country as well.
I hope everything goes well, and hopefully i can help with the one next year.
I'll be racing in Charlevoix that day, unfortunately. I would really like to be there.
I'll be racing, but as far as volunteering is concerned, only if it doesn't interfere with my photographing.
Can we designate you official volunteer photographer Jon?
BUMP!!!! We need more people. The greater our volunteer force the greater the race will be. Step up for the team.
I'm in for volunteering!
Count me in.
IT IS THIS SATURDAY EVERYBODY!!!!!!!! Get excited.
I'm in!
Good luck everyone! Make McGill proud!
So what time do volunteers need to be there? I have volunteered for working at the bbq. Also, what's the best way to get there?
Im in, officially; guests for convocation dont get here until Monday, so Im free! Saweeet!
Also, I too need to know the best way to get there.
I believe that everybody who has volunteered has been contacted by AndrewG, and will be receiving assignments from him soon. If you have never talked to Andrew and would still like to volunteer send him an email marked for volunteering at our mcgillcycling@gmail.com account.
Thanks to all of you ahead of time. It is not possible without the support of the team.

Anyone want to meet at the gates and bike down?
i'm biking down. what time where you thinking
Don't know why but I was in the not racing section. Definitely racing! Wooo! See everyone tomorrow!
What time do you need to be there for? I estimate it should take around 50 minutes.
Good luck all o' y'all
Might be too late now, but I'm riding over too. I need to be there absolute latest before my race at 13:10. I was thinking of leaving around 11ish. Meet at the gates?
Actually, I'll be riding down the other side of the mountain. Way easier for me. I'll be leaving my place (ridgewood) around 6:30am.
If someone sees this on time and can bring me an umbrella, i'm sure the camera would appreciate it.
Thanks to all the volunteers it was a fun race... I wish this could be more than once a year !
We'll host 5 next year. Count on it.

I'm going to give a short shout-out to everybody who came to this race.
Racers, you kicked ass for ignoring the weather and grinding out some great races.
Volunteers, you were superb doing everything that made the race function.
St. Jean Ambulance, you bandaged up our crashed rider so well. Awesome.
FQSC, we got you your tables... eventually. Next year's series will be even better organized. Thank you for coming out.
Ville Saint Laurent, you were amazingly helpful closing the roads. You made the race possible.
Till next year everybody.

Looks like it was a fun race. Plus I see the guy from Stevens with the amazing HED wheels came. Wish I'd been there.
Awesome photos Jon!
