Wrapping Up Race One in Shakopee
Seeking all sponsors!
Have a connection a local business who loves all things outdoors, heath and fitness or just likes to be involved with their community’s youth? WBL MTB is looking for local businesses to sponsor our team! In return, they’ll receive several opportunities for exposure at mountain biking events, on our website and social media channels. We’re already proudly partnering with Roam, the local bike shop in White Bear Lake—but we’re seeking more opportunities for connection.
See the attached flyer for more information, and please share with any business you think may be interested. Thanks for your support!
LOT PARENTS Help sign in/out riders at each practice, stick around in case they are needed during practice. It’s a “volunteer when you can, no long-term commitment” type of opportunity and a great way to get to know everyone on the team.
COMMITTEES Sign up for committees such as fundraising/scholarships, volunteer coordination, race day nutrition, and more. No experience necessary.
