Flagger/Corner Marshal - Stop traffic when racers are approaching your post.  Direct racers onto the race course.
Sweep Vehicle - Support behind fields.  You drive the course behind the last racer picking up vests/radios/whistles & signs from volunteers that are out on the course.  Thank each volunteer for helping out.  You will also pick up riders that can no longer finish the race.  Please take down their bib number and report this to an official at the finish of the race.  At the finish you will make the announcer aware that you are heading back into town if someone needs a ride.  Drop vests/radios/whistles & signs off at MBSEF, along with the MBSEF van.

Lead Feeder - Pick up bins of pre filled water bottles and deliver them to the feed zone.  After the sweep vehicle comes through return the bins with all the empty water bottles to MBSEF.
