Volunteering

2024 Volunteer Requirements

LVDA, We Heard You!

It's hard enough to carve out the time to volunteer, but connecting with show managers and scheduling should just be ... easier. And now it is! 

Sign-Up Genius

We're going to be using Sign-Up Genius to recruit Volunteers for our Schooling Shows and other available volunteer jobs.  Sign-Up Genius lets you pick when you volunteer, how many hours, and what job you'd like to do. Instantly! We'll be posting Sign-Up Genius links on our Facebook page and Centerline News.

Wait, We Need Different Kinds of Hours? 

Not any more! No more "hands-on" hours requirement: all Volunteer Hours are created equal. Are you serving on a Committee? Or doing data entry for our Awards Committee, or maybe working on the website? Can you powerwash our filthy dressage ring (power-washer provided!) or help us sort through and re-sell donations? All of those hours will count toward your Year-End Award Volunteer hours. 

And we'll make it as easy as possible by listing those jobs on Sign-Up Genius. Sign-Up Genius lets you pick when you volunteer, how many hours, and what job you'd like to do. Instantly! 

Volunteer hours are recorded "live" on our website, so it will be easy to keep track throughout the show season. 

Keep an eye out for Centerline News in your email box and watch our FaceBook page! Sign-Up Genius will be available as we have volunteer jobs that need to be filled!
