I am reaching out to you to help with the 2018 California Festival of Speed taking place April 20 thru April 22, with set-up on Thursday April 19, 2018. Visit www.zone8.org/events/speedfestival.php to learn more! Or see us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/CaliforniaFestivalOfSpeed.

We need about 400 volunteers to make the California Festival of Speed a success again. If you are interested in helping please email me ASAP so I can get you on the schedule. Some jobs go very quickly! Without enough volunteers we can’t safety put on such a large event. This is Zone 8’s largest event and proceeds from it subsidize the cost of Zone activities such as the End of Year Awards Banquet. Also, by volunteering, a portion of the profits are returned to the Regions based upon the number of shifts you work…so the more the merrier!

I have positions available for the following days and times:
Thursday Set-up: 8:00 till done
Corral: (Porsche parking) morning shift: 7 to 12:00, afternoon 12:00 to 5:00 (Fri, Sat, Sun)
