Among NVRHA's primary goals are education and fun. We encourage spectators and auditors to attend and enjoy our clinics and competitions and it cost nothing! We know, from experience, that auditors and spectators will be our next participants. So, why not get the most out of your experience by volunteering. We offer a free lunch to those who sign up ahead of time as a volunteer for the day.
We would like to invite both spectators and auditors to join us at our BBQ. (please purchase a dinner ticket in advance)
Volunteer opportunities include:
Scribes:You will be the judges right hand during the competition. Some knowledge of the events is helpful and training will be provided. Studying the rules and the score sheets in advance is required. Scribes learn the score sheets inside and out, and really get a feel for what a judge is looking at in each class. This is a great benefit when you decide to compete. 1 per judge per day.
Gate Mangers:You help keep the competition on track by lining up contestants and helping the judges and scribes. Minimum of 2 per day.
Runners: You assist the Participants, Judges, Scribes and Score Keepers by "running" the score sheets to the office, and generally providing support as needed. Minimum of 2 per day.
Timer: You would work in the announcers stand running the time clock and generally assisting the announcer as needed. Minimum of 1 per day.
Trail Course: Volunteers are need to help set up the course on competition day, as well as re-set the course after each competitor. Minimum of 2 per day.
Photographer: Some events do not have a professional photographer and we would love to capture the event with help from a volunteer (camera provided)
