Getting Involved: Join One of Wayside's Committees!
*Join Operations*
------------------------------
We work to manage the house and grounds. If you’re handy with a hammer (or
would like to learn) you can help us with new and ongoing construction
projects. We’ll also be planting a sustainable garden, building a
grey-water system, and creating walking trails through the woods. If you’re
not close, you can help recruit volunteers or follow up with house rental
requests. Write to the operations
committee<jeff at waysidecenter.org?subject=operations%20committee>
.
Join Communications
------------------------------
We keep in touch with the community. We need your help to write the
newsletter, update the website and make materials to keep people in the
know about what we’re up to. If you like writing, illustrating, social
media or graphic/web design, then you’d be a great asset to the
Communications Committee. Write to the communications
committee.<aaron.samsel at gmail.com?subject=Communication%20Committee>

Join Development
------------------------------
We’re in charge of making sure that Wayside and our programs are here for
years to come. Fundraising isn’t just about asking people for money, we
also need volunteers to organize house parties and events like our field
day, the Wayside Cup. We make contact with potential supporters and thank
current donors for their support. Write to the development
committee.<virginia at waysidecenter.org?subject=development%20committee>
Join Programming
------------------------------
We are in charge of reaching out to members, partners and ally
organizations to find out where there are issues. We then create programs
to support the community, including workshops at Wayside, trainings on
interpretation, a trainer’s collective and a speaker’s bureau. If you’d
like to gain more hands-on organizing or networking experience, join the
Program Committee to help keep Wayside connected to your community. Write
