Santa Clarita officials announced Tuesday they are looking for more than 100 volunteers for the Amgen Tour, a world-class cycling event.
The world’s elite cyclists cover over 750 miles through seven stages along the Pacific Coast from Sacramento to Pasadena. The City of Santa Clarita is set to host the final stage of both the men’s and women’s races of the Amgen Tour in May, according to officials.
“This year, over 100 course marshals are needed to ensure the race goes smoothly and is an event for all to enjoy,” said City officials.
Course marshals are assigned to designated areas along the race course, such as driveways and parking lots, to assist with coordination and safety.
“They are responsible for keeping the course clear of pedestrians, spectators, cars and other possible obstructions for the cyclists,” said officials in a statement.
Volunteer shifts will be available between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m. on May 18. Assignment details with assigned locations will be emailed to volunteers in early May.
