W3C Arena Team Showcase

We're starting our service team showcase series with the W3C Arena Team!  You have probably been to at least one of the many events hosted in our own arena and know how fun they are, but more importantly, they are a vital part of W3C's ministry.  Rodeo and western culture events are our main areas of outreach and provide us with the opportunity to share God's love and God's Word with as many people as possible. 

The Arena Team plans and executes all aspects of these events.  They select the events, make posters and flyers to advertise the events, take entries, and arrange for livestock to be supplied when necessary.  On the day of the event, they make sure the arena is watered (if necessary) groomed and safe for our contestants, set up poles, barrels, or chalk lines, depending on the event, manage livestock during the events.  They also manage everything related to the contestants, from taking entry fees, setting the line-up, running the timers, keeping scores, emceeing the events, playing music, and distributing prizes at the end of each event.  There are so many ways to get involved with the arena team!  You don't have to be an experienced equestrian to help.  Are you good with Canva or Publisher?  You could help make flyers and posters.  Do you have access to a bulletin board at work or in the community?  You could post flyers to help advertise events. 

If you're interested in serving on the arena team, get in touch with Arena Team Leader, Danny Corbin, or keep an eye on the announcements for the next arena team meeting.  The next event is 11/20 and a perfect time to shadow some of our team members to learn more about serving in this capacity.
