Ride Captains

H ow can I get more involved?  As a volunteer organization, we are always looking for people to fill leadership positions.  If you have an interest, please contact the Senior Ride Captain in your area.  If the SRC position is vacant in your region, contact the Assistant State Captain.  Upon approval, the first promotion is to Ride Captain in Training (RCIT).  You would be paired with an experienced Ride Captain until you have the experience to become a full RC.  Becoming a Ride Captain can also be a stepping stone to higher regional and statewide leadership positions if you desire.
