9 READY SET RIDE Ready set ride is looking for volunteers. They ask for a 3-hour commitment once a week for two months. That gives 24 hours of service (all individual hours would be complete). They are there on Sundays 9 am to 3 pm and Monday Thursday 4 pm to 7 pm. Visit readysetride.org for further information or call to set up an appointment
