The Open Organisation Of Lockpickers (TOOOL) predates Pumping Station: One by several years, but had made it the center for its regular monthly meet-ups. [[TOOOL Chicago]] has been a great resource for PS:1 and organized several popular large events. Lyn Coel discovered TOOOL after becoming a PS:1 member in 2013, and went on to win the 1st place Chicago Locksport award in 2017. In addition to the volunteer positions she has held at the space, she became co-president of TOOOL in 2023. TOOOL meets the first Wednesday of every month in the lounge. Despite its long shared history with PS:1, [[TOOOL Chicago]]'s contribution to our community has never been formally sanctioned or subsidized. | The Open Organisation Of Lockpickers (TOOOL) predates Pumping Station: One by several years, but had made it the center for its regular monthly meet-ups.

During the Pandemic, he created the Discord server Analog Game Night: Online (which predates the PS:1 Discord). It was extremely well attended as one of the few community activities available while the space was closed under lockdown. Analog Game Night resumed meeting at the space in 2023 and consistently meets the 2nd and 4th Saturday of every month. Will donated a large set of metal drawers to the space lounge to store games in between events. This JFDI donation has never been red ticketed, but never officially endorsed. The contributions Will has made to PS:1's community cohesion have yet to be officially recognized as well. | ||

Andrew Camardella and Lyn Coel are already | Andrew Camardella and Lyn Coel are already volunteers, so this represents no membership status change for them. Eli Underhill-M is a member who has been extremely active in organizing the cycle repair station. Will McShane has held volunteer positions in the past, but is not currently a volunteer or member with waived membership. This vote will grant them both free membership and volunteer status. Violet previously had free access to the space through a reciprocal arrangement with Redemptive Plastics, so this change will grant her membership, but will not change her payment status. | ||
