If you can't ride, but would like to help out, we will need plenty of volunteers for the ride. We need people to register riders as they arrive and others to staff the SAG tables on the route. We are looking for doctors and nurses to be on hand for emergencies as well as first aid. We would also love to have a few massage therapists willing to provide chair massages at the end of the event. Please email Stirling if you can help out: scousins@nonviolentpeaceforce.org or call her at 651-429-0531.
