ON-GOING VOLUNTEER OPORTUNITIES
Check the "EVENTS" page for specific future needs.
Listed below are some of our on-going opportunities.
Emergency Evacuation Plan
Help establish evacuation plans for the county – involving developing
lists of trailer owners willing to respond.
Special Events
BCHA runs several events every year. Each of these events need volunteers to plan, setup, decorate, and otherwise ‘run the show’. We’re also eager to get new ideas about what events would attract our members.
*Volunteers are being organized this fall for our 10th Annual Horse Lovers' Fling on April 15, 2006. This is our big social and fund raising event of the year with our silent auction. Call Sandi Rosewell, 730-565-1275, if you would like to help with the auction, decorating, registration, or other responsibility. It's a grand time for all!
Horse Services Directory
Approximately every 5 years BCHA produces the Boulder County Horse Services
Directory. This publication requires a large amount of research to locate
all of the horse-related services in the county, set up distribution channels,
etc.
Trails Maintenance
Join our crews several times a year to repair trails subject to heavy
use. BCHA built the Dowdy Draw trail in 1986 and has maintained it since.
We have volunteered to adopt the Switzerland
Trail across Caribou Ranch near Nederland and details will be forthcoming.
Trail Rides
BCHA hosts weekly trail rides every Wednesday to share our favorite trails
with others – please join us! Contact Suzanne 303-485-2162.
Newsletter production
BCHA’s newsletter, The Horse’s Mouth, is published bi-monthly,
keeping members informed of local events, activities and issues affecting
the horse community. We have needs for volunteers to help write, produce,
and mail the newsletters. Contact Hildy Armour, 303-442-3293, if this is your interest.
Liaison
Spend time with other horse clubs to keep BCHA visible in the horse community,
and keep BCHA up on the latest events.
Telephone Committee
Help BCHA stay connected with our volunteers when special opportunities
or needs arise. |
