2012 Alabama Cup Racing Series
Volunteers
First, we would like to thank all the volunteers for their help in the past. There are
many ways that you can help out. These jobs may require climbing up and down
rocky banks of the river, but if you have a condition that doesn't allow for that, we can
find something that doesn't require as much climbing. There are two shifts per race
day that lasts about 4 hours each. You can volunteer for only one or both shifts.
Volunteers should arrive no later than 8 am for morning shift and no later than 11:45
am for afternoon shifts.
Our main need is for Gate Judges. If you've never judged before, it is really easy. Download the Gate Judging 101 pdf and read over it. An example of a race score sheet can be found HERE. if you have never judged before, it is recommended you review this information before coming for the races. It is also recommended, but not required, to come to our training day before the race season begins. Once a date has been determined, that date will be posted on the Updates page and will also be emailed to our volunteers.
