It’s that time of year again! The 2024 AEC volunteer page is up and running at https://www.eventingvolunteers.com/events/3361/signup

The dates are August 27 – September 1, but we’ll also need volunteers prior to the start date in order to get everything set up, i.e. decorating cross-country. In addition, we have a new division this year…Starter!

As you know by now, it takes a large number of volunteers to make this event a success and we would love to have your help. If you have any questions, you can reach us at: [email protected].

We look forward to seeing you at the event!

Fun Fact #2: This year’s AEC will be the 3rd largest eventing competition ever run in North America with 859 entries! The 1st and 2nd events were the AEC we hosted in 2021 and 2019. That’s A LOT of horses! And it takes A LOT of volunteers to help get them through the event. We still need scribes, warm up stewards, in gate stewards, bit check, score runners, xc jump videographers, etc. You get the idea…we need your help! You can sign up at: https://www.eventingvolunteers.com/events/2808/signup

Guess what’s new this year! A dedicated volunteer tent! A place to get out of the sun, get a cold beverage, eat your lunch (water/box lunch provided or you can buy something from one of the food trucks), pick up your volunteer gifts, sit down, relax and hang out with your besties comparing all the great rides you’ve seen. Don’t want to miss it? You can see what we need and sign up at: https://www.eventingvolunteers.com/events/2808/signup
