Volunteering
Welcome, Valero MS 150 Volunteers!
Enthusiastic volunteers are key to the success of the Valero MS 150, the last largest group ride of its kind for the annual cycling season. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Lone Star Chapter needs 1,500 volunteers to help out during the San Antonio-to-Corpus Christi ride. Volunteering is a great way to help thousands of Texans living with MS, meet people and learn new skills.
