Collaboration Resources

What are these email lists and calendars I keep hearing about!?!

This page serves as a place for you to find the calendars, email lists, and documentation wiki used by Free Ride volunteers to collaborate.

Calendars

Public Hours Calendar

We use the public calendar to list when we are open to the public.

Staffing Calendar

Do you plan to staff open shop or shadow as a trainee? Are you the instructor for a specific drop-in class? Put your name on the day and give a time on the Staffing Calendar when you will staff open shop, staff volunteering days, or when you will teach classes. Shadow trainees can also to put their name on the staffing calendar.

NOTE: Ask for help before using the staffing calendar if it has not been explained to you or if you are unsure about the calendar use.

Discussion and Documentation

Crabgrass Wiki

The crabgrass wiki (https://we.riseup.net/freeride_council) is the main tool used by Free Ride volunteers to share meeting notes, hold discussions and post general documentation.

Staffing Manual

The staffing manual is a comprehensive reference for new volunteers who are interested in helping staff at Free Ride. It describes shop procedures in detail.

Email Lists

Join our email list to take part in discussions. Send email to the lists to begin discussions and get questions answered. We have more than one, so check them out.
