Who runs Freeside?
​
Freeside is entirely run and operated by volunteers. Our leadership is made up of a board of directors and three officers. We have six directors who are elected from the membership. They are responsible for setting policy and deciding the long-term direction of the space, as well as raising and mainting funds for the operation of Freeside. The officers, president, treasurer, and secretary, handle regular operations at the space and act as CEO, CFO, and secretary, respectively.
We also have teams of volunteers dedicated to specific tasks or areas in the space.

Safety and Risk: infrastructure safety, such as ensuring the presence of MSDS's, storage of potentially hazardous materials, and any major modifications to the space.
