Incoming PNER President and Vice President, Darlene and Siri, are looking for a few good people to fill some very important volunteer postions within PNER for the 2026 endurance season!
Positions needing filled:
- Camilla Committee volunteers!
- What is the Camilla Committee? "Camilla" is the name the Summers gave the blood machine when they purchased her. We're honoring their donation to PNER, and working hard to get this much needed committee off the ground once again.
- Who do we need?
- Committee Chair, needed to help coordinate the supplies, make sure the checks get to the PNER Treasurer in a timely manner, data collection from Camilla and coordinate the Camilla Committee volunteers helping with Camilla's whereabouts.
- Volunteers to help transport Camilla and her supplies, to rides throughout the NW region. Ideally, we would have a volunteer from each state in the region who can coordinate Camilla's whereabouts.
- This is an important committee because Camilla, the PNER Blood Machine, has been an invaluable, but underutilized, resource to PNER. We would like to revive Camilla and have her earning her keep again!
- PNER Convention Used Tack Sale Coordinator
- The Used Tack Sale is one of the most popular areas of the annual convention!
- This volunteer will help coordinate fellow Used Tack Sale volunteers, utilized for the annual Used Tack Sale at convention.
- Volunteers will organize the used tack consigned to the Used Tack Sale and monitor the sale throughout convention weekend.
- The Coordinator will reconcile the "books" at the conclusion of the tradeshow, and with assistance from the PNER Treasurer, give payouts to tack sale participants.
- The Coordinator will make contact with a local rescue, and arrange for donation of leftover tack sale items.
- PNER Education Committee Volunteers
- Volunteers will work with the EC Chair, to help coordinate education opportunities for PNER Members, outside of the annual convention.
- PNER Trail Committee Volunteers
- Volunteers, ideally, one from each state in the PNER/NW Region, will work with the Trail Committee Chair, to work with local trail maintenance/interest organizations, to advocate for various equestrian trails in teh PNER/NW Region.
- If you don't find the perfect fit in one of the previously mentioned committees, there are several other PNER Committees who are always happy to accept help within their ranks, in an effort to bolster PNER and her members!
Questions or interested in one of these postions?
Please contact Darlene (endrncrider@gmail.com) or Siri (siriolson11@gmail.com) for more information!
We appreciate our volunteers!

Are you having a hard time finding your favorite PNER links? We are rearranging some things with the ultimate goal of it being easier to find things versus scanning 19 (!) Categories, especially since we're looking for some new themes and most don't work well with this many categories. If it doesn't seem easier to find the most used links, there's a Quick Links page for just the most used pages. Ultimately we want people to be able to see the things they didn't know existed as well as the couple things they only thought they cared about! ;-) Feedback is welcome!
