Call for Volunteers to help at 2010 World Equestrian Games

Saturday, April 12, 2008

Registrations are now being requested for volunteers at the 2010 World Equestrian Games, set to take place in Kentucky Horse Park, USA from September 25 until October 10, 2010. It is envisaged that at least 6,000 volunteers will be needed to work before and during the Games and people with a range of skills are sought for a variety of roles.

The Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games promises to be an exciting event and plays host to the World Championships of the eight equestrian disciplines recognised by the Federation Equestre Internationale (FEI): Dressage, Eventing, Show Jumping, Para-Equestrian Dressage, Driving, Endurance, Reining and Vaulting. The Games have never been held outside of Europe before; nor have all eight disciplines previously been held together at a single site. It is anticipated that more than 600,000 spectators will attend the 16-day competition and Team GBR would be proud to have British volunteers out at the Games.

There is a web-based volunteer registry system in place. For more information and to register your interest see: http://www.feigames2010.org
