Founder's Note: February 2025
Dear Mixxer Makers,
Our Community Culture becomes more mindful and welcoming when we all share a sense of responsibility to each other.
Hopefully, you have noticed the signs ... around Mixxer regarding our New Year’s Resolutions of Community Care: care for each other, ourselves, and our Community. This is not new for our Community, but it is a renewed and mindful focus on making Mixxer a stronger community, welcoming for everyone, and being more cognizant of how our individual actions can contribute to a harmonious Community of Makers.
One way we're doing this by beginning a new program to train volunteers and mentors to be excellent stewards of Mixxer and mindful of what it takes to maintain a safe and welcoming space. Starting this month, we will be training future Volunteer Leaders.
Training for admin-type volunteer opportunities happens on the first Friday of each month, and maintenance training is scheduled for the third Friday. Through March, these sessions are training the trainers. Those will be leaders in our volunteer initiative. Joining as a Volunteer Leader is one way for you to become a central player in making Mixxer an excellent place for everyone who walks through our doors. We will share more ways for you to join us in caring for our Community throughout the year.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to another incredible year at Mixxer.
Alan Shelton Founder/Operations Director
