IVS Volunteers Needed

The IVS is in need of a couple of finish line captains. This easy to learn, but very important task is essential for area races to be possible. Our members are very generous with their time and talent. Getting volunteers are never a problem. A finish line captains main responsibility is to let the membership know via website when and where help is needed for the 2 or 3 races you are the captain. It takes 7 to 10 finish line volunteers for each race. Training is provided and you will find this to be enjoyable experience. Please contact Jim McIntyre at 694-6710 or tri-mac@sbcglobal.net
