Roseville Open Volunteer Opportunities

WE NEED YOUR HELP!  The Roseville Open figure skating competition is our club's biggest source of income every year, and it is not possible to put on the competition without volunteers.  Your time and talents are needed for this year's competition! 

As an added bonus, home club members whose family members volunteer for at least 10 hours during the competition will receive a $100 discount on their 2017-2018 USFS membership.  Please note that volunteering during the ice show does not count toward your 10 hours.
