MEET THE VOLUNTEERS: Julie Wetherell
Our family first did the RAC in 2015, when PJ (pictures) was in 5th grade. I chased with his younger brother while my husband rode. In 2016, when brother Kevin did the ride, we split riding and chasing (he got Banner Grade, I got Plaster City). PJ continued to volunteer as a Youth Support while I did attendance. In 2022, in addition to attendance, I did snacks on the RAC while PJ rode for the last time before heading to college. I continue to do both attendance and snacks. Outside of the RAC, I am a geropsychologist in the San Diego VA, a faculty member in the Psychiatry Department at UCSD, and a proud guinea pig lover!
"Life is like riding a bicycle. To stay balanced, you must keep moving."
