Ended up helping out as a Drug Testing Chaperone for the first hour or so of my Finisher Item Helper. Enjoyed greeting the finishers, hearing their stories, and congratulating them on finishing the ride.

I volunteered for a lot longer than the original volunteer hours because I kept working til around 6pm when almost all racers had finished. I was volunteering for my dad, Jeffrey Jay Reed (jjreed71@yahoo.com), to get into UNBOUND!

Working at the aid station was a great time. One piece of feedback I would offer is that it would have been helpful to include a map or overview showing a recommended setup for the aid station. After initial setup, we ended up moving and shuffling around items on the fly. It ultimately did not have a significant impact on the experience for riders but would have saved volunteers some additional work and could have alleviated some points of congestion at the aid station.
