🔸️ The Judges, Stewards & all the Committees are volunteers!
🔸️ Those working hard behind the scenes, the silent people that work tirelessly, unseen, & rarely acknowledged, are all volunteers.
🔸️ From emptying poo bins, to maintaining equipment - all happens because of volunteers!
🔸️ Without these amazing people, our hobby simply wouldn't happen.

🥰 So - when at your next event, take a moment to thank them.

🔸️ International Volunteer Day is a global celebration highlighting the vital role volunteers play.
🔸️ International Volunteer Day highlights the power of volunteering to strengthen communities & create positive change.
🔸️ With millions of volunteers across Australia, this day is an opportunity to celebrate their remarkable contributions & acknowledge the profound impact they have nationwide.
