Dear DOGS Team Ride Organizer:
Thank you for organizing this DOGS ride.
Enclosed you will find the following that we request you return to Brenda Isherwood after everybody has returned from your ride.
If a non-member team wants to join the kennel, have them fill out a Membership Form. They can give it back to you, with a check for $15 (made out to "Susan Nicolich"), or they can mail the form and check to Susan at the address on the form. (If Susan is at the ride, she will accept cash for new memberships and membership renewals.)
The only time the LAB Accident Report Form needs to be filled out and returned is if anybody has an accident. You should fill out the LAB Accident Report Form for each of those individuals involved.
You can email a (phone) photo or scan of the Sign-up and/or Accident Report Form to tmbreeze@optonline.net (preferred), or you can mail the form(s) to: Brenda Isherwood, 15 Unneberg Ave., Succasunna, NJ 07876. She will forward Accident Report Forms (if any) to the DOGS' Insurance Company.
Your general responsibilities pertaining to the ride include:
Sweeps need not be master mechanics or first aid specialists, but act along the lines of a buddy system (i.e., nobody is left stranded, another team is with anybody who might be having mechanical or physical failures, or has had an accident). Coordinators are not personally liable for problems, which is why we have League of American Bicyclist (LAB) Insurance and Waiver forms signed/filled-out by non-DOGS.
If you have any problems or questions, please feel free to contact Brenda Isherwood, tmbreeze@optonline.net.
Happy Pedalin'!
