ASPEN, Colorado - ESPN’s Winter X Games, the world’s premier winter

Winter X Games Nine will be held January 29 through February 1, 2005.
ESPN staff seeks dedicated action sports fans as well as newcomers
to cover the more than 700 volunteer positions for the overall event.
Winter X Games 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 27 through February 1, 2005. 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 27 through February 1.
Interested people for the Winter X Games volunteer program must be
18 years of age by January 25, 2005. Starting November 15, 2004,
the
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 fourth year in Aspen, we anticipate a great number
of returning volunteers while looking forward to all the new and
talented groups of people that will join our team."
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 Nine apparel, sponsor
goody bags, snacks and refreshments and will also receive an
invitation to the private Winter X Games volunteer appreciation
party. XCEL volunteers who make themselves available for the
duration of the event will receive a Winter X Games Nine 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 Nine. Local
business can download the donation form at
XGamesVolunteers.com.
