JOIN OUR PARENT VOLUNTEERS!
The BHS Mountain Bike Team depends on parent support. Below is a number of areas where we could use assistance. We hope all parents can find something they will enjoy. No job to small!
Carpool Coordinator: The team depends upon parent drivers to get to the races. To both minimize driving and ensure the entire team has a ride requires a little bit of organization and communication. The carpool coordinator makes calls and sends out emails to connect drivers with those who need rides.
Lunch after races planner: Taking care of this detail is hugely appreciated when the race is over. There should be team funds to take care of the expenses, otherwise a collection can be made at the race.
Equipment Manager: The equipment manager should be someone who plans on attending most or all of the races. This person brings the team tent and tools to races and helps set things up.
Event Planning : A couple team BBQ's a year bring the team together. Live Oak Park is one possible place.
Fundraiser Organizer: There are many creative ways to raise money -- we are looking for anyone who has ideas, some fund raising energy and a little spare time.
Grant Proposals: Much of our funding comes from public grants. We are always looking for new public and private grants to help fund the team. Let us know if you have any ideas.
Sponsor ship Liaison: We benefit from various sponsors. We could use someone who would be willing to help us keep up those relations and/or build new ones
Uniform Design: Anybody with professional graphic arts experience? We want to design a team short very soon.
Coach’s Liaison: We could benefit from a parent with coaching experience and some cycling knowledge as a go-between parents and the coach.
Volunteer Coordinator: The team sometimes obtains free entries into races by volunteering to work with race promoters. We need a parent to help coordinate these outings.
Trail Maintenance Coordinator : The club helps maintain local trails. We need a parent to help coordinate these outings.
Web Site Author/Maintenance: Keeping our team web site fresh and up to date requires regular maintenance. The kids enjoy seeing their results and pictures on line. Any web-savvy parents?
Team Photographer: In the past we have posted many race pictures on our web site. Any parents who enjoy action photography? Digital images preferred, but a digital camera is not required.
