Fond du Lac BMX is an all-volunteer non-profit organization.
Fond du Lac BMX relies on volunteers who dedicate their time and help before and during our events. Without our volunteers there would be no Fond du Lac BMX. We are always looking for volunteers to step up and make our races possible.
Parents, racers, family members, and spectators can all be involved in a number of ways.
Want to keep busy while your child or family member rides or races? Just see a staff member or stop by registration and ask how you can help. We'd love to get you involved at whatever level you're comfortable with. We won't survive without volunteers.
Volunteering
of course is not a requirement but can be a very rewarding experience
for you or your child.
Listed below are some volunteer examples of how you can help
out at Fond du Lac BMX, your participation will help preserve this fine race
facility.

beginning of the race season is when we need the most help the track
needs to brought up to par; this requires lots of Raking, Stone

the track surface. Work days are scheduled through out the
race season to maintain the Race Track and Facility.
Corner Judges - Corner Judges are responsible for monitoring riders on the track looking for illegal contact, riders cutting across the track, and for assisting riders who have crashed or fallen while directing traffic around a fallen rider.
Staging and Staging Assistance - Stagers are responsible for the organization of riders at the gate and in staging riders to prepare for their motos.
Scorers - Scorers are responsible for writing down the finishing order of each rider in a moto and providing race results to the track officials for proper scoring.
Track Announcer - Track Announcer is responsible for calling the race, announcing what is happing on the track, calling the riders to the track for there motos, matching riders numbers to there names, and general track announcements before during and after a race.
Volunteering

expenses to drive to the track; a staff member can tell you all about
those.
