Volunteers Needed for MLR – and beyond
Of course, the Maine Lighthouse Ride would not be possible without the many helping hands of our volunteers! We are always looking to add to this dedicated group of assistants, and we hope that YOU can help us to achieve another fun and successful ride! If you can join us, please contact Patti Poole by email. We are also looking for office helpers, and volunteers to lead seasonal trail events, from nature walks to x-country skiing and snowshoeing (hey, it’s never too early to plan!). Contact us by email for more info.
