Volunteers Needed

A celebration of women in sport... with the beginner at heart
www.womenstriathlon.com

Volunteers are needed for the 13th Milton Women’s Triathlon on Sunday, Sept. 5, 2010.

Volunteers are the heart of every Non-Profit organization. In the past we, at OWTS, have been thankful for the dedication of our Volunteer community. Milton Marlins Swim Team, Milton Triathletes, Milton Masters Aquatic Club and many individuals have dedicated both a Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning to this event. Not only because that is the kind of community we have, but also because each person is touched by the enthusiasm, joy and pride that each of our grass roots athletes experience while participating. It is truly an inspiring experience to see these women, many of them first time athletes, complete a goal that, prior to summer 2010, they thought was beyond their reach. Many of our past participants have continued on to become Pro-Triathletes and still come back to enjoy the experience year after year. Lesley Grice - Pro Triathlete, new mom will return to the event that was her first triathlon.

If you want to be a part of this experience please contact me ASAP. You can be sure that WE NEED YOU.

All proceeds from this event go to Girls Inc of North Halton, and a donation is made to the Milton Marlins Swim Team.
If you have a group of (15) or more adult volunteers that can dedicate themselves to a Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning, let me know. Donations to Athletic or Charity groups for dedicated, hard working volunteers are possible, contact me and we’ll talk!
