Voluntee Activities that count towards hours / year end awards
A Volunteer is somebody who does not receive monetary remuneration when volunteering at RMDS and Chapter recognized events. If you are paid, you are not a volunteer.
Time spent in Chapter or RMDS meetings is considered participation in the organization, not volunteering. Volunteer Activities that Count:-All unpaid positions working at RMDS and Chapter recognized events (scribes, runners, arena stewards, etc.) are considered volunteer time and should be reported. Please be sure to specify with the Volunteer Coordinator if you are volunteering for another RMDS member.-Committee meetings for actively working on specific topics such as shows or other events are considered volunteer hours.-Time spent working on your position in preparing for a chapter or RMDS meeting (ie: Financial management, meeting setup and minutes, etc) are considered volunteer hours, just not the time in the actual Chapter or RMDS meeting.-Writing articles for publication in RMDS Centaur-Recruiting sponsorships for RMDS and RMDS Championships-Participating in RMDS fundraising efforts (ex: instructors who donate lessons for RMDS fundraiser)-Paying a Jr/YR to fulfill your volunteer hours
