Solano Stroll – VOLUNTEERS NEEDED AT AS&R INFO TABLE & OPENING PARADE!! – AHS MTB Team providing Free Bicycle Valet Parking! @ Solano Stroll Bicycle Valet Parking Lot
Sep 14 @ 9:15 am – 5:15 pm

Come volunteer a few hours at AS&R’s information table before enjoying the Solano Stroll!

As usual, free Bicycle Valet Parking will be featured at the Solano Stroll on Sunday, September 14! The Albany High School Mountain Biking Team will again be taking the lead for this important service, using Albany Strollers & Rollers’ specialized racks! The location will be on Key Route Blvd just north of Solano Avenue –  it’s near the Greenway so like last year, the lot and tables will be plenty busy!!

This is the biggest event of the year so come be a part of the fun and lend a hand!

As we always do, AS&R will also have an information table near the lot where we (YOU!) will talk about and answer questions about active transportation stuff in and around Albany with people at the festival! WE NEED YOU TO MAKE THIS A SUCCESS! Whether you have volunteered before or are interested in helping for the first time, this event is for you!
**VOLUNTEERS (the first 12 to commit) WHO WORK AT LEAST A 4-HR SHIFT WILL GET FREE LUNCH PROVIDED BY LOCAL FAVORITE KIM’S CAFÉ & SANDWICHES!!
**COMMIT TO VOLUNTEER EARLY FOR AN INVITATION TO THE STROLL KICKOFF PARTY IN EARLY AUGUST!!
Please contact Amy Smolens at amy@albanystrollroll.org if you can volunteer in any capaciity!

The AHS Mountain Biking Team is leading the Bicycle Valet Parking at the Solano Stroll – will you lend a hand?

For the first time, AS&R is leading an active transportation contingent in the opening ceremony/mini-parade – we need participants of a variety of ages & abilities on a variety of bikes. If you’d like to participate on Sunday morning, contact Ian MacLeod at ian@albanystrollroll.org .

The AHS MTB team may also need additional volunteers, so whether you’d like to help park bikes (we have parked 300 bikes in the past!!)  or volunteer at AS&R’s info table, please contact Amy Smolens .Parking bikes is a great gig for kids, too, as long as they are strong enough to roll a bike. If students need volunteer-hours, this is perfect!

Bikes, Bikes, Bikes!! 300 + of them coming to the Solano Stroll! We hope you’ll be there, too!
