Volunteer Opportunities:

We need volunteers for our shows, clinics and special projects through the year.  Volunteer opportunities for shows include advance preparation and show day activities, such as set up/tear down, packet preparation, scribes, gatekeepers, runners, office staff and in the barn.   To volunteer, come to a meeting or e-mail volunteercoordinator@dancinghorsedressage.org

Volunteer Reimbursement:

If a volunteer works a minimum of 4 hours at a single show (hours may be accrued by donation) and has purchased a stall for the horse they have entered in that show (either competing or non-competing), then they may submit a request for re-imbursement of the stall fee. Hours used for stall re-imbursement will not be deducted. Requests for re-imbursement should be submitted via
email to volunteercoordinator@dancinghorsedressage.org

DHD & CT Volunteer Hours:  Policy for 2024

We will document and track volunteer hours on a tracking spreadsheet.  The tracking spreadsheet will be posted on the website after each show or as needed with current hours for each volunteer.

Volunteer hour policies are as follows:

  1. All volunteers MUST sign in and out.  Sign-in sheets will be in the show office or in a location designated by the event manager for other events.  If it’s not on the sign-in sheet it didn’t happen, so be sure to record your volunteer time!
  2. Anyone can donate their volunteer hours to a rider for the purpose of year-end series awards but must declare their donation at the time the volunteer service is rendered.
  3. The event manager or volunteer coordinator will use the sign in sheets to update the tracking spreadsheet and provide updates for posting.
  4. Hours used for Year-End Awards, will be deducted.
  5. Hours will expire at the end of the DHD & CT membership year (Nov. 30).
  6. Hours will not carry over into subsequent membership years.
