The Hall, along with Visit Canton and the Canton Regional Chamber of Commerce has a database of almost 5,000 volunteers to draw upon throughout the year to meet volunteer needs. USVCC has multiple veteran network partners including Vietnam Veterans of America, American Legion, and Knights of Columbus among others in Ohio. The USVCC with support from the Hall will meet monthly with Volunteer Chairpersons designated to oversee the specific areas of responsibilities for each event of the Warrior Games. Volunteers will be required to attend training meetings held before every event to review volunteers’ responsibilities. Guest safety is always the number one priority.
