DVCTA Volunteer Awards for 2020

The year 2020 was a unique time because of dealing with Covid-19.  It was a year of “learning as you go” when dealing with changing safety regulations at horse events.  DVCTA would like to Thank all the volunteers who came out to ensure that we had shows to ride at during the 2020 show season.

Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, we are making a few changes to the DVCTA Volunteer Program for this calendar year. We understand that our shows and events cannot be held without our wonderful volunteers. But we also recognize that during the pandemic, in order to ensure social distancing, there should not be extra people at events. Therefore, the DVCTA Board has waived the volunteer requirement for Year-End High Score Awards. In order to recognize the individuals that are willing to volunteer this year, we have adjusted the requirements for Year-End Volunteer Awards:

Bronze – 5 hours
Silver – 8 hours
Gold – 12 + hours

These changes are only in effect for the calendar year of 2020.
