June 2022
You're receiving this as someone who has "raised their hand" with us, or signed up to receive volunteer information. We are grateful for your interest in supporting us with your time and thank you in advance for signing up for any of these upcoming opportunities.
Bike Prom Volunteers Needed
Bike Prom 2022 is approaching fast and we are looking to you, our dedicated community of volunteers, to help pull this off. We have a number of volunteer opportunities available ranging from sub-committee leads, event day coordination to corsage crafting and everything in between.

"Raise your hand," email us directly at info@bikefortcollins.org, or both if you are interested in getting involved.

Other Bike Month Opportunities
Bike to Work Day / Bike From Work Bash - Next Week
Bike to Work Day
Join us the morning of Wednesday, June 22 at the Oak Street Plaza Breakfast Station where we will have some fun schwag to give away, take people through our classic “Legal or Not” Quiz, and the engage in the usual friendly bicycle banter.

Remington Bike Count Challenge
In conjunction with Bike to Work Day (BTWD), we're also planning to have a satellite BTWD station by the Remington Bike Counter, to cheer BTWD participants on as they pass the counter on Remington Ave near the corner of Lake Street in the hopes of breaking the current single-day record 1,737 riders.

Bike From Work Bash
We also close out the day with a "Bash" at O'Dell's where bash-goers who arrive by bike receive a FREE beer. There'll be music and drawing/door prizes and we can always use help hosting this.

Be sure to select Bike to Work (Wherever) Day when you update your information
Mark Your Calendars
Mark your calendars, as we'll need many volunteers for these as well. We'll send an email out with additional information as these get closer.
Foco Fondo Gravel Race/Ride - Sunday, 7/24
As a beneficiary of this ride (Foco Fondo donates a portion of proceeds toward Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programming), we support this event by hosting an aid station, as well as an SRTS booth at the Expo following the event--and we need volunteers to help with both.
Tour de Fat - Saturday, 9/3
As a beneficiary of this event too, it's our biggest volunteer need of the year. Truly an "All Hands on Deck" event for us. While an in-person event hasn't been able to happen the last two years due to the pandemic, we are super-excited for its return in 2022.
Tour de Farms - Sunday, 9/18
A fun and festive 30+ mile fundraising ride that begins and ends at the TBD local brewery. It is led by Bike Fort Collins representatives and features a combination of paved and gravel roads, along with 3-4 stops at local area farms. We generally need check-in volunteers, as well as volunteers at each farm stop.
Bicycle Film Festival - Thursday, 10/6
Having hosted two Bicycle Film Festivals (BFF) virtually over the past two years, we're stoked to be bringing an in-person festival to The Lyric this year. Similar to Bike Prom, we'll need various volunteers to help us pull off a successful evening. Stay tuned for more information as October draws closer.
Share This Email
In addition to these opportunities, stay tuned for more information specific to events you've "raised your hand" for, and/or those in the 2nd-half of the year. In the meantime, do you know someone who loves bicycling and might want to help? Please share this email with them. The more the merrier.

Otherwise, regardless of whether you sign up for any of the above events, if you haven't already done so, would you please take a moment to update your information? The link will gives you the ability to let us know any/all the events, or types of things for which you'd like to volunteer.

Thank you so much for your continued interest in supporting Bike Fort Collins and we look forward to seeing you at these and other events this year.
