What volunteer positions need to be filled?

Sign-On: Help set up the sign-on table, as the athletes arrive check names and give out race packages

 

First Aid: Volunteer should be trained in advanced first aid. Stay in the first aid room throughout the day and help any injured athletes who turn up. If someone is injured on course, travel with the CNC quad driver to treat or transport the person back to the start area. Call ambulance services if needed.

 

Course Set-Up: 5-6 people needed Friday afternoon to ride the course setting up tape and markings. One person needed on Saturday morning and again in the afternoon to check signage and condition.

 

Starting, Timing & Results: Sit at the timing tent and help with racer identification, timing, printing and posting results.

 

Food: Bring food from our sponsors in Calgary and help prepare and serve yummy food to hungry racers.

 

Prizes: Pick up prizes the week prior to the race from our sponsors around Calgary and maybe Canmore. Bring them on race day, organize and distribute for each category at the awards ceremony.

 

MC: A funny and entertaining person to give commentary as racers ride their laps.

 

Course Marshalls: You will be stationed on the course, watching racers come through and calling for help in case of injury or other emergency. This is the most entertaining volunteer job since you usually get to watch the most technical sections of the race.

Why Volunteer?

The Iron Maiden is an important race in the Alberta circuit, and a showcase for the Spin Sisters. This is one of the most well attended XC mountain bike races in Alberta, and it's the most important race for the SS race team. Most of the women in our Learn To Race program will do this as their first ever race! Our club is starting to show up on the podium in many women's categories. Hosting this race allows Spin Sisters to give back to the mountain biking community, and is great promotion for our club. But we need lots of volunteers to make this event a success!


Volunteering gives racers a chance to give back to the cycling community, and innocent bystanders a chance to witness the mayhem firsthand. There will be great food and prizes drawn for volunteers as well so come on out!

 

Remember that volunteers DO NOT have to be members of Spin Sisters so drag your friends and family along with you too!

 

Please sign up for this event so I know what positions are filled and what is still available. Thank you!
