Reservations for volunteering as a Bike Wrangler on Giveaway Day
Thank you for choosing to be a Bike Bike Wrangler! In this volunteer role, you’ll move bikes from storage to the shopping area by size to replace bikes that have been chosen by kids, so that recipients will always have a good choice of bikes. You’ll need to be efficient in moving bikes from our inventory to the shopping area and help the process to move along as we’ll have a lot of lives to change on this day!
Please be prompt when arriving for your volunteer time as one of our team members will give you a brief orientation prior to beginning your shift.
