The New Haven Grand Prix is right around the corner and we need your help! Be ready for a fun-filled weekend of cycling on September 25th and 26th! The weekend kicks off as cyclists from all over the country will converge on the streets of New Haven. Throughout the night we are expecting 15,000+ spectators to be touring vendor booths, visiting food stands and watching the race. This is where you, the volunteers, come in! To manage racers, spectators and vendors we need individuals who can direct people and traffic to ensure the night goes off without a hitch. Day two commences with The ConnectiCare Gran Fondo, a family-friendly ride through the New Haven and Middlesex Counties with three ride routes. 10 Mile, 31 Mile, and 62 Mile routes tour the beautiful Connecticut shoreline and river valley.

Below is a list of volunteer positions for the weekend, as well as a brief outline of what each position entails. We thank you in advance for your support!
