TES NEEDS YOU . . . TES is a 100% volunteer-run organization, and we are always looking for people with fresh ideas and new energy to help us further TES’s mission. Do you have leadership skills in a certain area that could help the community? Then YOU should look into one or more of the TES Committees! Bylaws: Helps construct bylaw amendments submitted by the membership so that they are comprehensible and compliant with legal requirements. Community Relations: Does community outreach and represents TES both within the BDSM/Fetish/Kink community and to the community at large. Includes Media Relations, which fields and responds to inquiries by the press, and screens all such inquiries. IT: Assists in the management, maintenance, and development of TES’s web presence as well as intra-organizational communications. They aim to strengthen TES’s online presence and make the website more accessible and usable for members. Operations: Serve as the face of TES (often the first face of TES) at all TES meetings; set up meetings and accommodate presenters; handle record-keeping; and provide a warm, welcoming environment for all. Programs and Education: Help continue providing the fine programming for which TES is known… securing presenters on a variety of topics, scheduling and planning in advance, and keeping a finger on the pulse of the community’s needs. Promotions: This committee utilizes all means: flyers, Fet Life, the Internet, Twitter, and others, to promote TES meetings and activities and to keep TES members abreast of news that will be affecting them and the BDSM community. Social Activities: The committee that helps us all get together in non-kinky settings, with kinky people! You help seek and coordinate outings to places like museums, movies, comedy clubs, parks, and other fun things with fellow kinksters! Socials: This committee plans and coordinates the incredible TES parties, coming up with innovative themes, decorations, food, and activities to make your kink fun! Volunteers: Since this is a volunteer-driven organization, this committee is one of the most important. Its objective is to recruit, retain, and reward those who make TES run. Developing effective ways to do this is a key component. If you have fresh ideas, you will be most welcome. If you are a TES Member and interested in volunteer opportunities, become part of something amazing. Submit your volunteer application For more information, contact Volunteers via e-mail.
