=How To Help=
Pumping Station: One is a member-organized, member-run, all-volunteer operation. Sometimes people don't understand how they can help out.
==Be a Good Member==
Just cleaning up after yourself, being helpful and considerate towards others, and being mindful of the shop type of environment goes a long way.
==Participate==
Taking any role in ongoing activities. There will be shop clean-up days announced, parties, and meetings. Come to those. Coming to Tuesday night member meetings or various working group meetings will let you know what needs to be done.
==Formally volunteer==
Two ways to formally volunteer for things are to apply to the board to be a volunteer authorizer if you are skilled in teaching one or more tools, to be nominated and accept the nomination to run for board positions (elections are in January) or to volunteer to be on board-appointed jobs like the Dispute Resolution Committee

==Create Your Own Role==
There is room at PS1 for creativity in every facet of operation. You could adopt a tool; that might mean talking to an Area Host. You could fix, clean, maintain, install, or improve something. How do you find out if that's cool or not? A big part of how things happen at this kind of space requires understanding things that aren't immediately obvious. You might want to ask a friend, raise your hand at a meeting, read the Google Groups or Slack for conversations that have already happened about the topics you're interested in. There's no one correct way.
