Whether you're here to tinker, build, craft, or explore—New Member Orientation is your first step to becoming an active part of the Waukesha Makerspace community. This session is mandatory for all new members before using the shop or participating in community activities.
During orientation, you’ll receive a full walkthrough of our space, learn how to safely and respectfully use our tools and equipment, understand our policies, and get your key fob tested and activated. We'll also cover how to reserve storage, find resources, and get involved with volunteer efforts, workshops, and events.
⚠️ Registration Code Required:
To register for orientation, you must enter a registration code. This code can be found in the membership application confirmation email you received after applying for membership. If you cannot locate your code, please reach out to a board member or contact us through the website.
What to Bring:
-
A government-issued photo ID
-
Your completed liability waiver (or plan to fill it out onsite)
-
Comfortable, closed-toe shoes (you may walk through active shop areas)
-
A positive attitude and any questions you may have!
Orientation typically lasts 60–90 minutes and is led by one of our amazing volunteers. Please note that sessions may occasionally be canceled or rescheduled, so we appreciate your patience. Orientation is offered periodically throughout each month, so find a time that works for you and sign up early if you can.
