Recreation, sports, arts and culture create opportunities for leaders to serve their communities.  Join our volunteer team and be a part of this White Rock tradition!

The Tour de White Rock spans over three days and is one of the premier bicycle events in Canada and the Pacific Northwest. Many of Canada's outstanding male and female riders plus a selection of American cycling teams will be in attendance to compete for over $15,000 in prize money.

Host Housing

Enhance your enjoyment of the Tour de White Rock by volunteering to host riders! For many cyclists, their trip to the White Rock will be made possible by the generosity and hospitality of a local family who participates in the Tour de White Rock Host Housing Program. Host families make a valuable contribution to the sport of cycling! Being a host family is a great opportunity to see inside the world of competitive cycling. In addition, you will have someone to root for at the races. Many hosts and riders develop lasting friendships and will look forward to each July when they can get re-acquainted.

Hosting is easy. There are only three requirements:

  1. You need to provide the riders a place to sleep (an air mattress is sufficient).
  2. The riders need access to a shower.
  3. The riders need a garage or other enclosed space to store their bicycles.

Hosts are not responsible for providing meals or transportation, although riders will appreciate permission to store items in a refrigerator and access to kitchen appliances.

If you are interested, please complete the Host Volunteer Intake form and sent it to:  lkempton@city.whiterock.bc.ca
If you have any questions, call 604-541-2161.
