SCHOLARSHIPS

If you would like to attend but can not afford the cost of the event we will have a limited number of Scholarships available. Scholarships DO NOT INCLUDE travel to the event, hotel accomodations or meals. They are for event registration only.

Priority for a Scholarship will be given to those that are available on Thursday, March 11, 2010 at 10:00 AM for Set-up and commit to working the Tear-down on Sunday, March 14, 2010 untill all trucks are unloaded at our warehouse (usually no later than 10:00 PM). (Leather SINS provides lunch for the Set-up Crew on Thursday and late dinner for the Tear-down Crew on Sunday).

Those persons awarded scholarships will be required to register and pay for the event in advance and will be issued a check for the full amount of their scholarship at the end of the event, provided they fullfill their commitment by working their scheduled hours.
(Advance payment exceptions may be made in the case of extreme hardships or for past team members that have proven themselves.)

We make every effort to allow you time to sit-in on classes and attend the Play Parties by rotating Scholarship Volunteers times and schedules to accommodate everyone. . You must commit to working 20 Hours over the 4 day period and meet the criteria below.

Scholarships are available for the Event Crew only. You will be required to help with:

Event Move-in (involves loading and unloading trucks*)
Event Move-out (involves loading and unloading trucks*)
Event Set-up (involves lifting some heavy objects*)
Event Tear Down (involves lifting some heavy objects*)
Facilities Services (involves setting up classrooms and the play space*)
Other Services described on the top of this page as needed.

  Not be afraid of hard work,
  Be Physically Fit and Energetic,
  Be flexible with the hours you will work,

IF YOU ARE AWARDED A SCHOLARSHIP:
You will be required to arrive in Skokie, IL to begin loading at 10:00 AM on Thursday, March 11, 2010. In the past, we have been done at approximately 8:00 PM. During the event, you will be needed to turn over classrooms for about 10 minutes between classes. You may possibly be asked to turn over classrooms for a short time after the dungeon closes on Friday and Saturday. On Sunday, March 14, 2010 we will be tearing down and staging equipment at times during the day as the equipment becomes available. Load-out will begin at 4:00 PM and we usually are done no later than 10:00 PM with the unload.

In the past, a few people have left before the trucks were unloaded and this has caused undue hardship on the rest of the crew. If you cannot commit to working until we are done unloading on Sunday night (approximately 10:00 PM), please do not apply for a scholarship.

PLEASE NOTE: Security, Administrative and Registration positions are filled by members of Leather SINS.

Please contact EventChair@sinsationsinleather.com to apply for a Scholarship.

Thank you for your support!
