Volunteer:
The efforts of The Third Hand Bicycle Co-op are mostly carried out by volunteer staff. Volunteers provide the valuable labor necessary to keep the Co-op running while earning credit towards purchasing Co-op parts and bicycles as well as stand time for their own bicycle maintenance. Volunteers are expected to contribute by assisting Co-op coordinators with bicycle maintenance, shop cleaning, and program development. Volunteering is a great way to get involved with the Co-op as well as learn valuable life skills.

Volunteer Benefits:

* Earn Co-op credit towards facilities rental or parts/bikes purchase.
* Earn skills through working with members and other volunteer staff.

Volunteer Guidelines:

* $8 equivalent in co-op credit earned, per 1 hour volunteered.
* Volunteer time must be scheduled and is not for personal projects.
* Time must be applied to designated Co-op tasks.
* Volunteer time may be applied towards Co-op membership.

Youth under the age of 18 must have a parent or guardian co-sign the following waiver form and have parental supervision when participating in the Third Hand Bicycle Co-op activities and events.

I understand that membership contributes to the cost of rent, tools and supplies for the Third Hand Bicycle Co-op ongoing operation, not necessarily for the purchase of a bicycle or parts for my personal use. I also understand that I am responsible for purchasing bicycle parts (including inner tubes for tires) needed for any repairs beyond normal maintenance, and that staffing of the co-op is voluntary and members are encouraged to volunteer to help the co-op run smoothly.
By signing this form in the space provided below, I hereby assume all of the risks of participating and/or volunteering in this initiative. I realize that liability may arise from negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons or entities being released, from dangerous or defective equipment or property owned, maintained or controlled by them or because of their possible liability without fault.
I acknowledge that this Accident Waiver and Release of Liability form will be used by the Third Hand Bicycle Co-op, sponsors and organizers, in which I may participate and that it will govern my actions and responsibilities during my use of its services. In consideration of my application and permitting me to participate in this program, I hereby take action for myself, my executors, administrators, heirs, next of kin, successors, and assigns as follows: (A) Waive, Release and Discharge from any and all liability for my death, disability, personal injury, property damage, property theft or actions of any kind which may hereafter accrue to me including my traveling to and from this program or using the program's bicycle, equipment or other facilities, THE FOLLOWING ENTITIES OR PERSONS: The directors, officers, employees, volunteers, representatives, and agents, the event holders, sponsors, volunteers of the Third Hand Bicycle Co-op; (B) Indemnify and Hold Harmless the entities and persons set forth in (A) above from any and all liabilities and claims arising from my participation in this program, including my use of a bicycle belonging to the program, irrespective of whether the cause of the claims or liability arise from the negligence, acts or omissions of me, a third party, or the program.
I agree (*)
