Volunteer Nation: 4 Events that Need Your Help This Weekend

From New York to Florida and everywhere a couple places in between up and down the East Coast, there’s an event out there that needs YOUR boots on the ground! Got a couple hours on your hands lately? (C’mon, who doesn’t?) Put ’em to good use and help your sport keep on keepin’ on.

We’ve compiled some resources on volunteering with COVID-19 regulations in mind. We’ll reference this list each week in Volunteer Nation, so take a few moments to familiarize yourself with what’s new and different.
