Step one, register as a volunteer and immediately have access to key correspondence!
Before the commencement of the season all volunteers will be sent a welcome pack which includes information about their role, their team leader and key DSRDA policies.
Approximately 5 days prior to each race meeting, you will receive a text message to confirm your availability for the upcoming meeting which you can confirm with responding (Y) or (N).
Two days prior to the race meeting you will receive a full volunteer roster which includes approx. shift requirements, racing minute x minute and race brief.
On the day you will check in at the sign on building to collect your meal voucher and equipment i.e. radio. It is encouraged you redeem your meal voucher prior to the race meeting due to limited opportunity throughout the night. You will meet with all volunteers for a quick briefing from the Chief Steward to confirm any new information relevant to the night. Then the time comes to get out and have some fun!
The day after you will receive an email with opportunity to provide and feedback or debrief points. This also allows you to nominate your pick for volunteer of meeting which the successful recipient (deemed by the volunteer coordinator) will receive a $50 voucher at the following meeting.
