Hello Members!
We are looking for a few volunteer members to promote the Club at the 5BBC table at the New York Bicycle Jumble on Saturday, September 14, near the Old Stone House, Fifth Ave & 4th St, in Park Slope, Brooklyn. This will be the last 5BBC volunteer event of this summer.
I anticipate setting up a table at about 9:30 a.m. and packing up by 4:00 p.m. The Jumble opens at 10:00 and we are looking for members who can staff the table and be Club ambassadors who explain the Club to people attending the Jumble and encourage visitors to join the Club.
To volunteer:
- Make sure you are logged in.
- Click the "Volunteer!" button on the right (on a laptop) or at the bottom of the screen (on a smart phone)
- Then click the "Volunteer Yourself" link.
- Check the time slot(s) you when you can help, and double check that your name and preferred email and phone number are correct.
- Click the "Next" button.
- Click the "Finish" button.
This is my first use of the Club Express website for volunteering, so email me at volunteer@5bbc.org if you are having trouble signing up. Also, email me if you can help but don't fit into the time slots on the website.
As the Jumble wraps up around 4:00 pm, we'll need to pack up and carry a table, banner and supplies about 2 blocks and/or load them into a car.
The Bicycle Jumble is like a giant bike flea market. Vendors come from the east coast to sell new and used bikes, new and used bicycle accessories, bike clothing and gear, and anything else bicycle-related. http://www.nybikejumble.com/
The 5BBC will have a table there and we need volunteers who will chat with people attending the Jumble, explain what the Club is, how our rides operate (from Happy Face to Quick Spin, including point-drop-sweep), highlight upcoming rides, promote club memberships and have people sign up for our mailing list. If possible, volunteers will help with minor adjustments and tire inflation. This is a great opportunity to promote the Club.
Please email me at volunteer@5bbc.org if you have any questions.
