Getting involved as a Volunteer
Who is Freeride?
Freeride Montpelier, a collectively organized non-profit welcoming all community members, promotes bicycling as an affordable, sustainable and joyful means of transportation. We provide community-wide access to the knowledge, tools and support for maintenance and safe riding, as well as access to pre-owned bikes and parts.
What can I help with?
For most volunteers, the position is diverse – each shift may look slightly different than the one before it. It can be a multi-faceted position that’ll have you combining mechanics, sales, education, customer service, people and shop management into one exciting role. Volunteers can support Freeride in many ways:
- Bicycle Mechanic (no experience needed!)
- Customer Assistance
- Events and Workshops
- Board of Directors
- Organizational Support
- Fundraising
How do I sign up?
We ask volunteers to initially schedule a volunteer appointment. After your first shift, you can make an informal schedule with the current shop mechanic and don’t need any future appointments.
Also! Are you a member at the Hunger Mountain Co-op? If so, one hour volunteered with us will get you a 6% discount for two weeks. Check it out: https://hungermountain.coop/member-volunteers/
Thank you for helping us keep the cycle going!
