VOLUNTEER REQUIREMENTS
PRINTABLE PDF FILE
*****ATTENTION CCOHSA MEMBERS*****
In order to make this show happen and for it to be run in a timely manner, we need volunteers at each show. By volunteering, you are also helping keep costs down for all of us. There are duties for any member to perform & most don’t even take 20 minutes of your time. The position that takes the longest is showmanship inspection but there is no heavy lifting required. Let’s help each other to keep our show going for years to come!
Volunteer Requirements:
- ½ to 1 credit per volunteer slot depending on duty; 2 volunteer credits required for year-end awards
- Single memberships: require 2 credits per show year for year-end awards
- Family memberships: require 2 credits per show year by at least 1 family member on that membership
- For youth memberships: at least one parent or guardian shall earn volunteer credits for that youth
Regarding All Volunteers Whether Members Or Nonmembers
- (Youth under 15 years old must be supervised by their parent or guardian to volunteer & have a signed release waiver by their parent or guardian)
- (Youth 15 - 17 years old must have a signed release waiver by their parent or guardian)
- (18 years old & over must have signed the release waiver)
