If you have ever attended a leather event of any size, you already know that no event can happen without the commitment and energy of volunteers. The success of Thunder in the Mountains is due to many volunteer members and a lot of hard work, sweat, and commitment. Comments in past years have praised the friendly, knowledgeable and helpful volunteer membership staff, and this year we plan to continue and improve that tradition. Our volunteers are one of the big reasons that people return year after year to enjoy Thunder.

This is a seperate section. If you are interested in being a DM you will need to work 3 hours as a DM. If you are signing up to be a volunteer and want to be a DM, you will still need to work your 10 hours as a volunteer plus the hours as a DM for a total of 13 hours. I am interested in being a Dungeon Monitor: check if you want to be considered for a DM position
