Bike Valet @ Palo Alto Airport Day!

💛 Help Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition (SVBC) run our secure valet bike parking at Palo Alto Airport Day. By volunteering, you help community members skip the vehicle traffic on Embarcadero Road, choose sustainable transit, and enjoy the aviation festivities worry-free.
No prior experience is necessary. We will provide a brief orientation at the start of each shift so you feel comfortable and ready to go.

Volunteer Roles

• Greeter & Tag Attendant: Welcome arriving cyclists, hand them a claim stub, and attach matching numbered tags to their bikes.
• Corral Marshall: Move bikes safely into the secure parking area and organize them by tag numbers.
• Bike Checkout: Match stubs to tags when attendees return, hand back their bikes, and send them on their way.

• Afternoon Shift: 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM
