Hoppet Helpers & Hotham to Dinner Plain Race

Hoppet Volunteers Needed

Here is your opportunity to make a contribution to this great event.

Volunteers are needed on Friday 23rd August for Set-Up and on the day of the event Saturday 24th August. This is the 29th Hoppet since 1991.

Volunteers from the Birkebeiner Nordic Ski Club have played an integral role in the success of this event since its inception in 1991. The Hoppet events make a large contribution to the funding of BNSC. It allows BNSC to provide services such as:

  • The Clubhouse
  • Junior Joey, Junior Birkies and Junior Camp programs
  • International Coach each year for BNSC training and coaching programs not only for BNSC but for local School XC programs as well.
  • Training programs for BNSC members in training, instructing, coaching and administration
  • BNSC participation in Local, State and National XC bodies.
  • BNSC social activities

Please read through the list of jobs below. If you are able to volunteer some time for any of these jobs (or feel you need some more information before committing) please contact Jim Gargan (Volunteer Co-ordinator) via email at <hoppet29@gmail.com> ASAP.
