The biggest fundraiser of the year, The Ojai Valley Century, is on Saturday, June 1st, 2019. Work has already begun behind the scenes to make this a successful event.


 


What is the Ojai Valley Century (OVC)?


Every year Ojai Valley Rides hosts a bike ride that begins and ends in Ojai, California. This supported bike ride takes cyclists through a scenic ride throughout Ventura County. Scouts and their families volunteer their time to make sure that this is a successful event. Some of the volunteer opportunities include rest stop helpers, shoppers, SAG drivers and much more. In turn, Ojai Valley Rides donates money to troops 128, 179, and our newly added troop 1176. The troops then divide up the donation by the amount of hours each family spent volunteering for the OVC. The money goes directly into the scouts account. Many families have received enough to pay for summer camp and other scouting activities.


 


How do I sign up?


The Ojai Valley Century is a big event and we need everyone to help out to make it a success. The OVC kickoff is on Monday, April 15 at 6:00 pm. We will be talking about this year’s ride and begin the sign-up process. The kickoff will be at Poinsettia Pavilion 3451 Foothill Rd in Ventura. You may also sign up at troop meetings following the kick off; however, sign-ups are first come first serve. 


 


The volunteer applications are attached, and I'll follow up with an expectations file in a separate email. They will need to be turned in at the time of signing up.


 


I look forward to working with everyone. See you on April 15th!
