Wanted: Judges for T-shirt & Symbolic Emblem
Salon
Have you been looking for a way to volunteer
your time at Convention that doesn't involve any
heavy lifting or answering registration
questions?
Do you like wearing T-shirts with cool caving
designs?
Are you a collector of caving-related stuff like
pins, patches, and coffee mugs?
Do you have strong opinions about what you like
and don't like in a design?
If your answer to any of these questions is yes,
then please consider being a judge for the
T-shirt Salon and Symbolic Emblem Salon. No
previous experience is necessary.
Please contact me via email or look for me in
the Western Gallery (bldg 24 on the campus map)
on Sunday or Monday morning at Convention.
Thanks -

Call for first
aid volunteers:
I'm looking for volunteers to put in some spare
time at the first aid station(s) during the
convention. I'm not looking for 24/7 coverage,
nor looking for someone to dedicate themselves
for all day service. I'm a fan of short shifts
and no crispy burnouts. We are all here to
enjoy ourselves.
I'm simply looking for people who want to make
themselves available to:
-
Staff the first aid station, and/or carry a
radio during the day and evening around the
Sehome campground.
-
Someone hanging around the evening parties
and dances to.
-
If someone is willing on one or more nights
to sleep with a radio on a medical dedicated
"quiet" channel at night in the campground,
it would be appreciated. I will be
doing the same from the dorms on the
University side of the convention (on the
"other" side of the hill).
Any certified volunteers are welcome. From
Basic Red Cross First Aid to higher
certifications.
We will be working under the Washington State
Good Samaritan Laws as volunteers. Here are the
websites for the current related Washington
State Laws:
(1) General good sam law. 4.24.300
http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=4.24.300
(2) limited Immunity for rescuers. 70.136.070
http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=70.136.070
(3) immunity for AED Users. 70.54.310
http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=70.54.310
Higher certifications may wish to look at their
local jurisdictions regulations and Washington
state regulations on how any licenses transfer
between jurisdictions.
The only aid I hope volunteers would give is the
basic American Red Cross first aid level.
Anything else gets sent off site.
Even though I'm trying to wrangle a small budget
for sunscreen and Band-Aids, I always welcome
anyone who wants to bring a personal kit they
are familiar with. I'm hauling mine along with
me.
Thank you very much for volunteering to make
this a fun and safe convention for everyone!
