Taming of the Slough 2014 - Volunteers Needed!

[DH001]

The forecast is starting to favor more rain for Friday than previously expected. If we get significant rain Friday and the trails are closed Saturday, the MTB section of the Taming of The Slough will be changed to an out-and-back ride to Rapids City along the Great River Trail. Not ideal, but with an event this complex rescheduling would be a nightmare. Course marshal volunteers will be positioned at intersections along the trail to guide and ensure participant safety from traffic. Below is an overview of "course marshal plan B" in case this happens.

Would everyone who is volunteering please pick one of these positions (1-10) and post up so I can double check we have enough people to fill them? Pick the positions with an asterisk * first since they are the most critical. Thanks!
