Paceline event seeking volunteers for Oct. 15-16

For the third year, the Paceline team is reaching out to people across the state of Georgia and asking them to raise money for the Georgia Cancer Center to help advance cancer research projects.

This local grassroots movement will host its annual bike ride during the weekend of Oct. 15-16. This year’s 50- and 100-mile routes will start at Augusta University’s Summerville Campus, and the 25-mile route will start at Harlem High School. The routes will take riders through some of the most beautiful parts of Augusta, Harlem and Thomson.

While the team would love to see all Augusta University and AU Health employees register to ride and raise money for the Cancer Center, they are also looking for volunteers to help during packet pick-up on Friday, Oct. 15 and PaceDay on Saturday, Oct. 16.

Volunteer options include bike management, food and beverage tent operations, rider check-in and more. Those interested in volunteering can help ensure the success of the event.

Volunteer shifts range from three hours to eight hours, but the longer shifts can be divided amongst volunteers. In exchange for their time, volunteers will receive swag from the event.

Those interested in helping can register to volunteer for the Paceline ride.

For more information on volunteer opportunities, email Cayla Long or call 706-413-7480.
