You’ll know her from Registration at the Bike Virginia Tour, long time Volunteer Jarla Ulman. She is one of the people that makes sure our event goes smoothly.
Jarla and Jeanne, dynamic volunteer duo. Jarla is on right.
Jarla’s been with our event since 1999. She’s a smiling face and helpful hand that coordinates our registration volunteers and personally helps make sure our riders have a smooth check-in and good start to their adventure.
On September 8, 2013 Jarla helped host another event, the Jewish Community Center of Northern Virginia’s Cycle Fest.
This four year old event raised $4,5000 this year, “more than doubling last year’s funds raised before, to benefit the Wounded Warriors Project, the JCCNV, and Hazon, which creates healthier and more sustainable communities.”
When I asked Jarla about the JCCNV event experience she said, “on a large or small scale, the needs for a successful ride are the same: good routes, plenty of good food and beverages at rest stops, and a ready smile. Thank you Bike Va for training me so well.”
