Ski North Ultra request for volunteers

[Allie Rykken]

Hey there!

I hope you can get out into the sunshine today, although I'd prefer it if it were a little colder :) 

I'm Allie - I've been a terrible Missing Link participant, but Bitner has been a wonderful and very helpful key player in an event I'm organizing called the Ski North Ultra. It's on Saturday, March 7 on the north shore near Lutsen/Grand Marais out of Cascade River State Park, and the main event is a 100K classic ski race, from 7am to 7pm.

I know we already have quite a few Missing Link runners coming to help volunteer (THANK YOU!), but Bitner suggested I throw my requests out there. We're still looking help with:

• 38K Sweeper

• 1-2 medical volunteers

• Aid Station leader (1) and helpers

• Road Crossing patrols (maybe the most boring but very important)

• A few more course marshals

We would also be very grateful for any help with course setup and course cleanup, which would be on skis.

So, if a weekend up north sounds like a fun whim for you, please do let me know - you can officially sign up here.

Thank you for considering!

Allie
