Event · part of 8. Do two of five, and discuss them

8(e). Volunteer at an event

Optional May not apply

This may not apply to you. You have not answered "Requirement 8: which two will you do?" yet. Answer it and this step will either settle or drop off.

A multisport event, running race, biking event, swim meet or adaptive sporting event. Same calendar problem as 8(d): someone else decides when it happens.

Note. Volunteering counts at a wider range of events than 8(d): a running race, a biking event, a swim meet or an adaptive sporting event all qualify, not only a multisport event.
