Volunteer Committee Information

It should be noted that the Amherst Skating Club has only a few paid employees including a Skating Director (Stacy Petri) and a part-time Office Assistant .

Every other task must be performed by volunteers.

Please consider joining us, in whatever capacity you are comfortable in. Amherst Skating Club is a CLUB, not a service.

There is a spot for everyone! We need you!

The following is a list and brief description of the many volunteer committees at ASC. Although some of the committees already have Chairpersons, we need people to assist the Chairpersons. To volunteer, click the link shown below to download the Volunteer Sign-Up Form and return the completed form to the ASC office.


**** Section 2.4 of the ASC bylaws state that ALL club members are required to volunteer a minimum of 15 HOURS per year. ****
