Shift
Basic information on running shift at All Hands Active. The shift staff down here are comprised entirely of people donating their time. These ladies & gentlemen are the reason we can stay open to the public. This helps:
- Provide the community with free access to basic tools, workspace, knowledge, internet, etc.
- Provides AHA with income through access to high end computing equipment compliments of MYTHLOGIC.
So next time you're down at AHA, please High Five the staff!
