Mendip Muddle - Your Club Needs You - Volunteers Needed
24/08/2010
The Mendip Muddle race is just over six weeks away and the time has come to ask (and beg!) Weston AC members, their friends, family and random people they meet on the street, to help with organisation and marshalling duties associated with this event.
To that end, please can I ask you to email me, using one of the links below, if you would be prepared to help out as a member of the organising committee, a helper on the day or both. Please supply your name and contact telephone number in the email. We cannot host this event without the generous support of WAC and RNLI volunteers so please get in contact as soon as you can.
The wages are not great, just a cup of tea and a slice of cake, but think of the sense of enormous well being knowing that you are helping to raise money for charity and putting on a challenging fell race for our running colleagues.
Many thanks
Bryan Morley
