Welcome!

A great way to see and learn about the sport of sled dog racing and becoming involved in the spirit of community is by becoming a race volunteer!
The Cascade Quest could not happen without our volunteers.
We have volunteer opportunities for everyone.


Team Handler - Help mushers harness their teams and bring teams to the starting line - bring your love of dogs, strong arm, sure footing and sense of humor!

Checkpoint Assistant - Assist race timer and checkpoint boss log teams in and out of checkpoints, directs teams to designated camp areas - may involve very late nights and very early mornings!

Snowmobile Trail Crew - Crews man trail intersections and communicate team positions back to race headquarters, provide information to recreational snowmobilers sharing the trails with the dog teams.  Our trail crews provide the eyes and ears of the race.  Crews work under the direction of the snowmobile crew chief.  Must provide own snowmobile.

Camp cooks - Bring out your inner chef!  Camp cooks provide meals for teams and race staff in checkpoints.  Primitive kitchen facilities and odd hours are the norm.

Parking - Parking attendants make sure everyone is able to park safely and in the appropriate area.  They are the first face of the race that spectators will see so be prepared to be the first information booth as well (don't worry, we provide the information you need).  Hospitality staff will have the most detailed information.

Hospitality - Provide race information to spectators at headquarters, encourage spectators to "FILL THE BOOT" for Chelan County Dist 9 Firefighters Association, invite spectators to warm up with hot cocoa or coffee, take home a souvenier, view educational material. "The face of the race".


Positions are available for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
