Western Challenge

The UWO vs. Guelph Horse Show is quickly approaching, and I have a few small requests for anybody who has offered to volunteer.

1. We NEED anyone who will be handling horses to sign a waiver. Even if you are not sure what duties you will be performing, can you please see me about filling out a waiver and emergency contact sheet within the next few days.

2. We need to confirm who will be available, and at what times during the day.
We are looking for:
-someone to direct parking in the morning
-set up crew first thing in the morning and then for patterns throughout the day
-horse handlers, ideally people who can stay throughout all, or most of the day with the same horse
-FOOD! Shelby from the UWO team is making some goodies but if anyone would like to donate some baked goods the proceeds will be going directly towards a show for the team for next year.
-clean up crew to help keep the grounds free of litter but mainly to help out with clean up at the end of the day when everyone else leaves. We will need help loading up the trailers, organizing tack to go back to the sponsors, putting cones back in their rightful spots, taking down our man made fence etc.

3. Prizes!
If anyone would like to donate something for us to use as prizes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners for each class (a total of 21 classes) please let us know. We are still in the midst of putting these prizes together and would appreciate any help. Gift certificates, horsey products, etc.

Thanks everyone for your support - hope to see you at the show supporting our teams!
