Hellyer Velodrome is run by volunteers and needs your help to run smoothly. There are many ways you can get involved. Talk to the supervisor running your session or contact a member of the Board of Directors for more information.

Here are some other ways to pitch in:

•  Assist your session supervisor. Supervisors at training sessions need to check in riders, help with rental bikes, keep an eye out for safety issues and answer rider questions – on top of getting in their own workouts. Find your supervisor and offer to assist.

•  Become a supervisor. You need to be an experienced racer and you must get first aid certification, and then you can open the track and run training sessions.

• Become a promoter. These are the people who put on races. This can be a great way to showcase your club or team and it is easy. The Board has a manual to help new promoters get started.

•  Attend a Board meeting. The Board of Directors meets monthly to discuss current events at the track, issues and long-term projects. Meetings are open to the public.

•  Join the Board. Elections are held every fall and the NCVA is always looking for people to take on new projects at the track.

•  Become a sponsor. Promote your club or business by buying one or more of the vinyl signs around the perimeter of the track.

•  Donate. Donations to the NVCA are tax-deductible and greatly appreciated.
