North Dublin Cyclocross League - Volunteers Urgently Required

crosswords

Hi All,

Due to foreseen circumstances, 3 out of the 4 league organizers have pulled out of this project at the last minute. Thus the events are in jeopardy.

The dates are scheduled as follows:

North Dublin Cyclocross League Sponsored by High 5

Sunday, December 8th: Round 1 - Paddy’s Hill, Portmarnock, north Dublin.

Sunday, December 15th: Round 2 - Sutton Cross, Sutton, north Dublin.

Sunday, December 29th: Round 3 - Ward Rivervalley Park, Swords, Co Dublin

I require the following crew the get this back up and running:

1 x IT person - run the website, manage the entries, display the results.
2 x Time Keepers - with laptop to attend the 3 races.
6 x Marshals - to attend the 3 races, and manage crossing points etc.
5 x Course builders - to (ahem) build the course.

All jobs are voluntary and are usually great fun. Course builders can race on the day.

If you love Cross, and you are not afraid to get cold and a bit wet, then please volunteer.

I need to know asap - otherwise we will have to cancel all of the events, leaving a massive gap in the calendar.

post here or email me by this Wednesday at mtb@swordscc.com

Many Thanks for reading and please link or re-post this post to any sites or forums where crossers hang out.

Update.

Thanks to the 5 people who have put their names forward to help with I.T. and Timing.

We still need more course builders (on the day) and marshals.

Thanks all.

c'mon people - how hard can it be to help build a course so YOU can race? Give something back.

Hi All,

We are making good progress with this.

Thanks to Glenn, Conor, Lenny, Michael, Gary, Peter, Jason and Derek for making contact and offering help.

If anyone is going to be at the St Annes race on Sunday, we could meet for a chat.

Website looks good. Do all the vets that normally do the A race in the Fixx league have to do race 1?
