Georgia Dressage & Combined Training Association

VOLUNTEER

GDCTA is a member-focused and member-run organization that depends on volunteers! We encourage you to become involved in any of the many activities we offer. Have a new idea? Bring it to the board at a meeting.
 Share the excitement from the inside: 
  • Meet international judges, competitors, and learn how the competitions work.

  • Scribing at a show is a great educational experience to help you improve as a rider! 

  • Help a Junior rider put a winning sash on her horse for the victory gallop! 

  • Participate as a ring steward in order to better understand our sport. 

  • If you’re a trainer, volunteer your time for a Kudzu Klinic.


    Volunteering is fun and educational!

    Never volunteered before?

    No problem!

    We’ll walk you through it.

    Complete training provided!


    Join the expanding list of volunteers.

    Now is your chance to give back to the organization that continually strives to make your dressage and eventing dreams and goals a reality. We are in constant need of volunteers for our wonderful recognized shows, schooling shows and many other activities. Sign up form.

    ARE YOU ORGANIZING SCHOOLING SHOWS?


    Dear GDCTA-recognized schooling show organizers:


    The GDCTA is offering your GDCTA-member volunteers an opportunity to participate in the Liz Faso Memorial Volunteer of the Year volunteer incentive program by volunteering AT YOUR SHOWS.


    We are offering this incentive to your show volunteers for a $25.00 buy-in fee that can be paid in the store. That fee covers all your shows for the show season - October 1 through September 30. All you have to do is send Caren Caverly (ccaverly@comcast.net) by email your volunteers names and total number of hours worked on an excel sheet. GDCTA will promote your shows as participating in this program. If you are interested, let Caren know.
