There are still plenty of opportunities available to get out and do some volunteering in the waning 2019 eventing season! The USEA Volunteer Incentive Program (VIP) is designed to encourage people to help grow eventing and help events run smoothly, and there are plenty of perks and awards up for grabs at the end of each season. You can check out the Volunteer leaderboard here and find more volunteering opportunities on EventingVolunteers.com.
