Ride for the River is an annual cycling event from Pottstown to Reading, and takes place on the Schuylkill River Trail on Saturday (Sept. 28, 2024). We need volunteers to help at the rest stop along the route in West Pottsgrove. Volunteers will first check in at Pottstown Riverfront Park.
Volunteers will help transport food, water, and other supplies from Pottstown to the West Pottsgrove rest stop area (at Old Reading Pike intersection). At the stop, volunteers will setup the area and prepare for the riders. Then help cyclists by providing snacks and beverages as needed.
Volunteers receive free Ride for the River T-shirt as well as a food and beer/beverage ticket to use at the Can Jam Music Festival at Sly Fox (Pottstown) the day of the event. Please list your T-shirt size in the "Response Questions" section after you click the sign up button for this opportunity.
The week before the Ride, there will be chance for Volunteers to stop by our office (140 College Dr. Pottstown) to pick up materials needed for volunteer tasks and to ask questions. If you are not able to swing by the office the week of the Ride, materials and guidance will be available morning of between 7:30-9am.
