• Safety is our highest priority when serving with the disaster team. Each shift will have a safety briefing before any work begins. A few things to keep in mind before you arrive:

1. Wardrobe Matters: We will have each volunteer wear a SERVE 6.8 t-shirt. Please have closed toed shoes, long pants, work gloves, water and a snack. Wearing the necessary wardrobe will allow you to participate and stay safe.
2. Safety Briefing: Please arrive on time. The safety briefing is mandatory and will start at the beginning of the shift. There will be a safety monitor on site at all times.
3. Age & Ability: Children under the age of 14 are unable to help with the disaster team. This is strenuous work, so please be aware of your capacity. If you have questions, please call Ashlee at 970-231-2904.
4. Liability Waiver: Each volunteer will be required to sign a statement of faith and liability waiver before serving. You can print and fill it out early to bring to your shift here. 

When you arrive, here is what you can expect:

1. Volunteer Check In: There will be a table in the parking lot where you will sign in. At this table, you will sign the waiver and grab a t-shirt (if you don't have one already).
2. Breakout & "The Why": When the shift begins, we will start by pulling all volunteers and leaders together. We will share why we are here, the impact you will have, and how SERVE 6.8 and its church partners have served the community through this response.
3. Safety Briefing: please do not be late. This safety briefing is very important so we must wait for each volunteer to arrive before we begin.
4. Training & Breakout: After the safety briefing, we will split you into groups and provide additional training and begin the days work.
5. This is difficult work. The debris is unpredictable, you are outside, and you will be standing most of the time. There are a few roles for those with limitations, but please be aware of your capacity and don't push yourself too hard!

In order to keep everyone safe, nobody under the age of 14 is allowed to serve with the disaster team. Teens between 14 and 16 must have a parent on site. Teens 16 to 18 may serve without a parent, but must have a parent signed liability waiver on their behalf before serving. You may print the waiver below and bring it with you to your shift.
