We need MORE Volunteers For The Upcoming Miss GEICO Triple Crown Offshore Race in NJ!
 
Hello Race Fans;

NJ Offshore is once again looking for volunteers who are able to bring their personal boats out onto the race course during race day. Our optimal goal is to have 30 to 40 boats stationed around the course during the race for safety reasons. NJ has been known as a very safe race due to the quick response time that we are able to demonstrate when an accident occurs. Any boat that is 18ft or larger can participate as a water volunteer. Actually, the bigger the better. Water volunteers fall into several different categories:

Turn Boats - The largest and tallest of the volunteer boats that mark the turns.
VIP Boats - VIP Boats are generally sport cruisers that carry VIPs and members of the Press.
Medical Boats - Usually 30ft fast boats that carry paramedics.
Dive Boats - Fast utility boats that carry SCUBA divers.
Sweep Boats - Boats from 24 to 45 ft used to keep the course clear and safe.
Marker Boats - Usually large boats that mark the spectator area.

We also need Scorers & Land Volunteers!!

By being a water volunteer, you are GUARANTEED a FRONT ROW SEAT to the offshore racing action! This race is the final race of the Miss GEICO Triple Crown and $200,000 of Purse Money is on the line! Over 50 boats are expected to attend!

As a thank you for your time and efforts, boat volunteers will receive:
2 Race T-Shirts Provided By NJOPRA
2 Invites To Private Racer's Party Sept. 6th 7pm-9pm with Open Bar & Full Buffet (Beer & Wine)
