We are grateful for your help!\nIf you are a returning helper and would like to work on river right or ferry string across the river\, please let the course designers (below) know ahead of time.\n\n** Paddle clinic for volunteers on four or five gates. After we finish set up\, Joe Sartori will offer a free session for those who helped.  It will be after we grab lunch\, hopefully around 1:00 pm\n\nEvening gathering at the Silvermines Group Campground with complimentary camping and beer provided (age 21+) for all who helped.\n\nCheck out this MWC primer: https://vimeo.com/124411745\, shot and edited by our very own John Neibling.\n\nAlso\, if you are interested in being a Course Designer for future races (no prior slalom experience required)\, please let the race directors know.
