Call for Volunteers – Help give lights to Ninjas!

[Erin Potter]

Hi there fine folks for the Forum,

BikeArlington and WalkArlington’s annual Daylight Savings light and reflective goody giveaway approaches. As usual, we’ll have small “be-seen” blinky lights and reflective gear to give to trail users who need lights.

But we always depend on volunteers to make this event happen, and it ends up being pretty fun and social.

Dates for Lighten Up Arlington this year:
Wednesday, November 7 @ 4:30PM – 7:00PM – Columbia Pike (intersection of W&OD Trail and Columbia Pike, by the Learners Loop Park)
Thursday, November 8 @ 4:30PM – 7:00PM – Rosslyn Bikeometer (corner of Lynn and Lee Highway) **DATE CHANGE DUE TO RAIN**

If you’re game to help out, shoot me an email at info@bikearlington.com or drop a comment below. Happy to have folks just stop by for a bit on their way home, too.

Appreciate y’all!

Erin: If my verging-on-50-hours-a-week work days allow me, Columbia Pike on the 7th, with the Olde Trek (in dynohub demo mode).

I’m in for Nov 7 at Columbia Pike! See you at 4:30 and can be there earlier if needed for set-up.

I’m asking the Friends of the Mt. Vernon Trail to volunteer at the Rosslyn event, since we were talking about doing a light giveaway in conjunction with daylight savings. Will let you know how many folks can attend. I’ll be there for sure, but at 5:15 to 5:30ish.

I’ll help out at Rosslyn.

I’ll be there around 5:30. I’ve got one other person from the Friends of the Mt. Vernon Trail that will be there too.

Monday the 5th so we can be near the lovely Mt. Vernon Trail. We would help with the other one on the W&OD, but we’re currently beefing with them. https://twitter.com/MtVernonFriends/status/1058149990466535425

But also, I’m going to try to telework and help at the one on the W&OD since I can get there from my condo almost entirely without pedaling.

[consularrider]

I’m going to have to bow out for Monday’s event, shouldn’t be standing that long.
