Volunteers must commit to a minimum of three days of work and each volunteer will receive a pass for the week, parking hangar, two daily admission tickets and a food voucher for each day of work.

Each new volunteer for 2008 must purchase the AT&T Champions Classic uniform, consisting of one logo shirt and hat for $25. Returning volunteers from 2007 can use last year's uniform.

A registration form is available online at the tournament Web site, http://www.attchampionsclassic.com or by contacting Mary Boyle at the tournament headquarters Office, 661-254-9750.

VCJGA needs help: The Ventura County Junior Golf Association will be operating food carts at this week's Northern Trust Open. The food carts will be selling pretzels, ice cream and churros as a way to raise money for the organization.

Last year, the VCJGA raised $4,000 for various programs.

VCJGA executive director Mark Wipf said volunteers are needed to help at this week's tournament — particularly on Thursday and Friday.

Only two people per booth are needed and Wipf said an adult can easily handle a booth/cart alone. Kids 14 and older can work as individuals; kids 13 and younger need a parent to accompany them.

Anyone interested can contact Wipf at mark@vcjga.com.
