The organisers of the Kaiteriteri Gold Trail Event are seeking collaboration with a local sports group or organisation to act as marshals in the upcoming race.
The event, which is to be held on the morning of Sunday, 2 June, takes place almost entirely within the Kaiteriteri Mountain Bike Park.
Committee member Graeme West says that they are looking for marshals to give directions at “pinch points” and offer camaraderie to the competitors.
The organisers are offering a donation of $200 for a group of five people, and $400 for 10, to help on the day.
Helpers must be at least 16 years or older.
The Kaiteriteri Gold falls under the umbrella of Nelson Tasman Community Sport Events Incorporated, which operates as active4good.
Graeme says that the organisation is run by volunteers, with any raised funds given back to Nelson Tasman to worthwhile ventures that enhance physical activities. Their two annual funding rounds offer $5000 each, and Graeme says that this will no doubt grow over time.
