Volunteer Opportunities
Do you wish to help?
The Granite State Wheelmen, formed in 1971, is operated strictly by volunteers who enjoy bicycling and wish others to join us in this popular sport. We appreciate constructive suggestions, will try to correct errors, and we're always looking for new ideas. Better yet, we welcome volunteers who share our enthusiasm for bicycling and are willing to help make things happen by contributing their time and expertise. For more information about volunteer opportunities within the GSW, please write, call, e-mail, or contact any Board member.
Opportunities abound!
Attention:
Team members needed for
Granite State Wheelmen sustainability study.
"Since its founding in 1971 by three intrepid cycling enthusiasts, the Granite State Wheelmen has become New England's most active adult recreational bicycling club. Through the dedication of many volunteers, GSW promotes safety, education and camaraderie". -GSW website
In fact, the club accomplishes thousands of hours of work every year with only the volunteer efforts of its members and board and the workload is ever increasing and is quickly growing beyond volunteer capabilities. This was a topic of discussion at our most recent board meeting in January and a decision was made to form a team to study the future sustainability of the club.
Four board members; Dave Topham, Judi Hull, Bill Kennedy, and Bob Koehler have volunteered to be part of the team to study options for club sustainability, and we are requesting club members to join the group to share their ideas. Anyone interested is encouraged to contact Dave Topham at GSW-Office@comcast.net.Manchester Area Ride Leaders Needed
The Manchester GSW group meeting at Nault's Cyclery wishes to increase the riding options for the different riding levels which are showing up for the 5:30 PM Wednesday rides. We wish to develop a series of rides along the same lines as the Concord group which has several different rides going out. We need more ride leaders for fast and slow rides.
If you are interested in being a Ride Leader, please contact Dave Holmander at Nault's Cyclery, 603-669-7993, cell 603-770-3970, home 603-736-8248 or email dave99cyclist@hotmail.com
Turtle Leaders Needed!
Can you commit to leading Turtle riders for even only one Wednesday or Saturday this summer? It is an important way to support and encourage these cyclists! Leaders unfamiliar with the area can choose from a variety of cue sheets to help guide their group on an appropriate route. Cathy Yeager 603-224-0346 cyeagersecretarialservices@comcast.net
