If you see a task that you think should be done, go talk with a board 
member or a section head.

Task initiation/definition can occur in many different ways.

1.) A board member or a section chairman may have a task that he 
would like done. He can discuss it with a club member or members. If 
the member is interested in doing the task, then board member should 
approve the task, telling the member to go ahead (in cases where the 
board member is confident that no-one else is working on the task), 
and have the the member should send a short e-mail describing the 
task to the work credit coordinator, Marv Alme, copying the board 
member. Alme will reply, providing some standard instructions about 
how to report work credit and how to get reimbursed. [The reasons to 
coordinate through the work credit coordinator are 1.) so we don't 
have two people doing the same job, and 2.) so we have a short 
description of the task that we can incorporate into the spreadsheet 
when work credit is listed.] The individual will perform the task, 
and then send work credit coordinator a list of who worked and how 
many hours. This will be posted.

2.) A LASC a member could come to a board member or section chairman 
with a suggestion for doing a task. The board member can approve the 
task, with the club member sending a brief description of the task to 
the work credit coordinator.

After we do this for a while, we'll all have a better feeling for how 
the approval process should go. In most cases it probably will be 
done at the section level. But we also want to make sure we don't 
have two guys each thinking they're fixing the same hole in the 
sheet-rock. If you're not sure if someone might already be working on 
a task, then send an e-mail with the suggestion to the work credit 
coordinator. The work credit coordinator will respond, either telling 
the member to go ahead, or tell him who's the task coordinator.

Approved tasks will be posted on the website with the task leaders 
contact information. Club members interested in assisting can then 
contact the task coordinator.

Club members are encouraged to be honest in the way they report their 
hours. The reality is that for non-professionals fixing things, much 
of the time is spent running back and forth to the hardware store. 
This counts as time. Planning counts as time. Buying materials counts as time.

If you have special skills that you feel might be useful to the Club, 
please send an e-mail to Marv Alme. Skills that immediately come to 
mind are welding, wiring, plumbing, heating/air conditioning and 
general mechanical, because those are the tasks in our immediate 
future. But don't be limited by this list. If you think a task needs 
doing, suggest it.

Reimbursements:  If you need to buy materials or supplies to perform 
a task, then either give the receipt to a board member (who will pass 
it along to Angie Chipera), or mail it to Angie at

Angie Chipera
LASC
PO Box 983

Just put in a note about what you fixed or were working on.

Angie will mail you a check.
