*SL Volunteer Island SW (SLVISW)
As of May, 2008, VTeam happily unveiled the remodeling of SL Volunteer Islands! We have a structure in place that will allow you to continue to add your creative and functional contributions the island, but with a land management system that will be conducive to greater agency among each Mentor who gets involved. Please continue on to the [[SLVI Events/Attractions Policies]] article for information on how YOU can utilize SL Volunteer Islands for your own attractions and events.

The green windows design however may change seeing as how I walked right into one.(SL Volunteer Island SW 88,166,21)
