Volunteering for the Ride is a great way to get outside to enjoy Buzzards Bay, an opportunity to meet new friends and, most importantly, your chance to interact with hundreds of cyclists who will raise over $185,000 to support the Coalition’s work for clean water. PLEASE take a moment to put the Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride on your calendar, and email us if you're ready to volunteer! </font></p><p style="margin-right:0in;margin-left:0in;color:rgb(51,51,51);letter-spacing:0.1pt;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><font face="verdana, sans-serif"><b>
