dedicated action sports fans as well as newcomers to cover
the more than 700 volunteer positions for the event.
Winter X Games VIII staff is looking to the local and
regional communities for people who are willing to volunteer
for a full day at this multi-event action sports competition.
Several daylong volunteer positions are available including:
hospitality, crowd control, ushering, access control and
credential checking. Positions are available from January
22-27. Winter X Games also offers the XCEL program,
designed for dedicated individuals who are willing to
volunteer every day from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., January 22 - 27.
Interested people for the Winter X Games volunteer program

27, 2003, the www.xgamesvolunteers.com website is currently
accepting applications for all volunteers. All applications
are processed on a first come basis.
"We have thousands of spectators, special guests and media
that visit the Winter X Games and we look to the volunteers
to assist with maintaining a positive and friendly environment
for everyone in attendance," said Sharon Walsh, Manager of
Volunteer Services. "Going into our third year in Aspen, we
already have a great volunteer base of very talented and
dedicated volunteers. But, just as our event expands every
year, we are looking to expand our volunteer program.”
The primary function of a volunteer is to assist the
spectators and credentialed guests during the event.
Volunteers are expected to be proactive, helpful and
knowledgeable hosts to spectators during their visit
at the Winter X Games.
Volunteers will be privy to Winter X Games VIII apparel,
sponsor goody bags, snacks and refreshments and will
also receive an invitation to the private Winter X Games
volunteer appreciation party. Additionally, XCEL
volunteers who make themselves available for the duration
of the event will receive a Winter X Games VIII token of
appreciation.
In addition, volunteers take part in a daily raffle of
items donated by local and industry businesses. Businesses
that donate items to be entered into the volunteer
raffle will gain exposure by having their company name
included on the volunteer website and the on-site
jumbotron at Winter X Games VIII. Local business can
download the donation form at
XGamesVolunteers.com.
