2012 Staff Volunteer Positions

Are you interested in having a lasting impact and being on the “inside” of race operations? Are you interested in leading a volunteer crew or learning technical skills? Consider volunteering for a staff volunteer position with the SoCal League. As a staff volunteer you will be an integral part of the SoCal League Race Production crew. You will learn a lot and serve in key positions at each race during the season. You may even have the opportunity to take your skills on the road by assisting new
NICA leagues as they get their races off the ground. Though we would like you to be able to work as many races as you can during the season, please don’t think missing a race or two is a deal breaker. We want to develop as many leaders as we can with institutional knowledge so that we will be able to facilitate League expansion.
