Troy,

At our shop we have a category for our long term volunteers we like to call keylist volunteers. The keylist voulnteers have the privelege of having a key card to the shop to have after hours access as well as be able to order from our distributors at cost.

Aggreed upon conditions include signing a keylist contract and a mandatory amount of volunteer time monthly. For us this ends up being about 10-15 hours per month.

As far as abusing the priveleges go, keylist volunteers are able to order as much as they want as long as it is for themselves and not other people or being sold. In my experience, I have had close enough contact with our keylist volunteers to detect this sort of abuse if any. If there ever is a problem, you could always revoke these very valuable priveleges.

Hey all,

We are looking into providing discounts on new parts (special order opportunitys) for our long term volunteers.  Does anyone else provide this?

If so, how does that work for you? How do you track the hours and the volunteers that are able to have this perk? Have you had any problems or people taking advantage of this?

What other kinds of perks do folks provide to volunteers?  Different levels of volunteering get different perks?

Thanks,

Troy Neiman
