## Zone Safety Orientations & Office Hours

Safety orientations are basic overviews of zone rules and equipment safety. Members
must attend safety orientations for each zone they wish to use. Office hours are
times when volunteers are on hand in the Zones to answer basic questions. Zone Orientations
are for both current and future members.

_Free to attend thanks to your volunteer instructors!_
