The American Massage Therapy Association®, California Chapter has teamed up with the National Multiple Sclerosis Society® at the Bay-to-Bay Ride, Carlsbad, San Diego on October 19.

This century bike ride (100 miles) begins in Irvine and makes its way through Camp Pendleton and the Coastal Highway while raising funds and awareness of Multiple Sclerosis.

Only the California Chapter massage therapists will provide massages to The 100(ish) Club Riders. These riders are aware that they will be treated to a massage at the end of their ride, for their efforts in fundraising.

These athletes are very local, primarily coming from Orange and San Diego County. This is a great opportunity to grow your practice, so please bring your business cards! Historically, tips from the riders have been very generous!

AMTA CA will also be promoting our National Massage Therapy Awareness Week® (October 20-26) and FindAMassageTherapist.org® while working with the MS Society at this event.

What we need from you:
Register through CVENT to be a volunteer. Arrive by 9am! to unload and set up. Bring your massage table and/or chair. Dress is comfortable, but professional. We will be indoors with AC. It could be cool, so dress accordingly. Remember to Bring Your Business Cards!! We should be done and able to leave the event by 4pm. You are welcome to stay longer to enjoy the festivities with your bracelet.

The Chapter and MS will provide bracelets, name tags, business card rack, table cleaner, hand sanitizer, disposable face cradle covers, gloves, masks (if desired or required by the event), sign in/waivers/consent to touch for the athletes, chairs, food drink, possible possible T-shirts and swag bags.

Updates may be made closer to the event by the coordinators at MS. Expect a “Know Before You Go” at least a week before the event.
