Southwest Leather Conference (SWLC) recognizes the value and contribution of volunteers to create a successful conference. Volunteers are integral to the success of SWLC providing logistic support and services. SWLC recognizes that different volunteers can contribute at different levels, involving abilities and time and that volunteering uses time that the volunteer might otherwise use to engage in the conference events.
Volunteers promise to:
- Demonstrate respect for others, including their sensitivities, rights, and sensibilities.
- Not engage in any inappropriate behavior while volunteering.
- Honor and support the efforts of fellow volunteers.
- Ask questions for understanding, and offer helpful suggestions.
- Offer to do what I can — and complete my assignments. Communicate what I can and can't do.
- Leave my ego at the door — team effort is what counts here.
- Welcome people regardless of gender, race, origin, handicap, sexual orientation, religion, and any other characteristic.
Understanding of Liability
Given the importance of volunteers to the success of the conference, all volunteers are expected to be punctual and work their entire shifts. SWLC recognizes that the loss of a volunteer means more work and unnecessary complications for other volunteers and reserves the right to rescind the discount should the above expectations not be met.
