TOKENEKE CLASSIC 2017 ROAD RACE.....VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!!
The 2017 Tokeneke Classic Road race takes place Sunday, August 13th. Registration is now open at BikeReg.com. EBCC has been a huge contributor to this USA Cycling sanctioned event in recent years. We have committed a minimum of 15 volunteers...hopefully more. This also fulfills the USA Cycling requirement for EBCC to have the ability to race under our banner.
We need Volunteers to make this race happen. This race is in our back yard (East Hartland, CT) where many of us ride regularly. You can both race and volunteer as many do. We really need help from non-racers too. The club with the most volunteers gets 2 cases of beer. We won this last year for the 3rd year in a row!!
VOLUNTEER Registration just opened at our new Volunteers site:TokenekeVoluteerLink to sign up and get your top choice of duty. Make sure you register as a member of EBCC so the club gets credit for your help.
We need help with wheel car drivers, road marshals, registration table, feed zone, finish line & parking lot. Call or email me with questions... twern@comcast.net Thanks!!

Hey folks! Time is running out to sign up to volunteer to help with the Tokeneke Road Race. This race has had to be cancelled in past year when they are short on volunteers. EBCC has a great reputation for helping out with this epic race that's right in our back yard. Please sign up if you can help.

I signed up for course marshal in the afternoon and intend to race (Cat 5) in the morning.
Congratulations to EBCC for being the club with the most volunteers at the Tokeneke Classic!
Thanks again to all that volunteered. 2 cases of beer coming your way for the picnic. Let me know where to drop them. Unfortunately I am racing the day of the picnic & will not be able to make it. Tim

Tim,
You can drop the beer off anytime and we'll save it for the picnic.
