Truman,
If there are under 10 riders though how many volunteers are really 
needed?   I'd love to volunteer at a 100 but the one time I volunteered 
at a ride, Biltmore many years ago, there were SO many volunteers I 
really felt that I was not needed.  Granted driving from Atlanta to 
Asheville without a trailer isn't at all bad but I still felt that they 
didn't need me.  It was great that I learned quite a bit since I was 
just thinking about endurance and everyone Was terrific.

As a complete side note:  I picked up the magazine United Kingdom Horse 
and Rider and I saw an ad for Baileys All-Around ENDURANCE mix.  I just 
thought it was great to see a specialty feed for Endurance horses, even 
if it is in the UK.
