the many shifts that are required to staff the 24 Hours of 9
Mile. Shifts usually are about 6 hours and volunteers will be
rewarded for their time. Please contact us if you or someone
you know will be able to help us. We need volunteers to make

each volunteer! We'll also have food and munchies for volunteers.
Remember, kids of a reasonable age can volunteer, too. We need
lots of people. I'll try to put you with your friends and family,
or in places you want to be.
