Hi folks,

The 3rd annual Freshwater Trust Portland Triathlon is coming up in two weeks, and I see some of you are on the start list - thank you. If you're not planning to race, or are coming with friends and family members, I'd like to ask you to consider volunteering. It's a great way to be involved with the race without the sweat and sore muscles, and you get some of the finest volunteer treatment this side of the Ozarks: organic cotton race shirt, post-race BBQ from Madison's Grill, gelato from Staccato Gelato, and Deschutes beer. All for FREE!

We are in desperate need of help for certain areas, especially on the 8-mile bike course through downtown, so please consider donating a couple hours of your time on Sunday, August 23. This race, the only triathlon ever held in downtown Portland, would not be possible without you.

To volunteer, send an email to our volunteer coordinator, Hilary Johnson (vc@portlandtri.com), or fill out this volunteer form:

Thank you for your support! I hope to see you there. I'll be racing with the 3's this Friday at the Twilight Crit if you want to ask me any questions in person.

kind regards,
Jeff Henderson
race director
