Re: [RC] 100 mile volunteering - Truman Prevatt

Truman,
If there are under 10 riders though how many volunteers are really needed? I'd love to volunteer at a 100 but the one time I volunteered at a ride, Biltmore many years ago, there were SO many volunteers I really felt that I was not needed. Granted driving from Atlanta to Asheville without a trailer isn't at all bad but I still felt that they didn't need me. It was great that I learned quite a bit since I was just thinking about endurance and everyone Was terrific.


As a complete side note: I picked up the magazine United Kingdom Horse and Rider and I saw an ad for Baileys All-Around ENDURANCE mix. I just thought it was great to see a specialty feed for Endurance horses, even if it is in the UK.

The Biltmore normally has a lot of volunteers but there are other rides that could sure use some help. The Biltmore is a wonderful ride, however, we don't want to see it as the only 100 mile ride in the region. It's not really the number of riders but the number of hours required for a 100. Timers, pulse takers, scribes can all use breaks and no one should expect them to be on a 24 hour shift.
