2017 volunteer guide - version 2 additions

Post by katymac » Wed Aug 09, 2017 6:54 pm

Hiya, here is a possible two page addition to the cute little volunteer guides...

---
Bit of history
The Forest started in 2000 in Westport (just off the Grassmarket). We wanted a place where we could show films, play and listen to music, hang out, dance, discuss stuff, think, hold amateur boxing contests, learn Spanish, play chess, encourage sarcasm, look at art, make things etc… and anybody could get involved and make things happen. Basically we wanted a cool place to go when there was none.

Since then a long line of volunteers, culminating in you, has kept the Forest open in five different buildings -- pepping up the turmoil at every stage.

How to talk to the collective
The Forest is a many tentacled octopus so we'd love you to get more involved in keeping this behemoth swimming.

If you accept this offer/challenge/burden/opportunity, please create an account on the bulletin board

1. Go to https://theforest.org.uk/bb/
2. Create an account
3. Go down the rabbit hole, or mark everything as 'read' and start afresh
4. Start posting your ideas and making your proposals

Also, a wee correction for the next one: on the 'How the Forest is run' page, it says "there are 3 working groups" and then lists four.
