Coach Bones will tell you… volunteering at Games events can be FUN!
Call out for Volunteers! We need you at the Canada West Regional Event!
Positions to fill: May 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30 of 2011
Set Up – Need to form a crew of capable strong people to help set up and take down the WOD equipment and competition area. This is a position that will be busy on Thursday, May 26 and again on Monday May 30. People in this position will also be available to help with other tasks on Fri, Sat and Sunday if they wish.
Judges – HQ wants all Judges to be CF Level 1 Certified, so that is a basic requirement. As a judge you need to be confidant, assertive and tireless! Based on the fact that you are a CrossFitter, you are probably posses all 3 of those qualities!
Misc – As the weekend approaches the roles needed to fill with volunteers evolves. You may be doing any sort of support work, running or organizing. Please know that you will not be asked to do anything you aren’t comfortable with and you do not need to be a CrossFitter to help contribute in some way.
T-shirt, snacks, lunch and bottled water will be provided for the volunteers. There will be a designated area for volunteers to collect, take breaks and store bags and jackets. Volunteer help is vital to running a smooth competition. In fact, like most events, this one won’t happen without fantastic people stepping up to help pull the weekend together and get the job done. You have a fantastic Team of Directors, so rest assured it will be organized and well thought out, they just need YOU to jump on board with them!!
