Joining
Street Team membership is open to everyone, but please remember that Street Teams are created for the purpose of promotion. This is not a fan club or an instant message board. We expect members to do everything in their power to spread the word about Vallejo. As a member of La Familia/VST, you are subject to the following rules and regulations:

We reserve the right to remove and/or ban any member who is unruly or disruptive from team lists, chats and activities. Such action will not be taken unless it is felt that said membership is detrimental to the team or Vallejo themselves. Your actions as a member of the VST are a direct reflection of the band. It is our responsibility to keep activities running in a positive and professional manner. We will not revoke membership because you do not do things such as hand out flyers, but for actions that cause any of us problems.

Vallejo Street Team Philosophy
Campaigning, working the merchandise booth, postering, and flyering is quite taxing and takes a lot of hard work, and our Street Team members constantly deliver. We believe in rewarding the members that consistently work hard. We know that most of the Street Team members are doing their job for nothing more than the enjoyment of seeing Vallejo succeed. We will often give our Street Team members rewards that are directly associated with the work they are doing. This relationship has proven beneficial for both Vallejo and the Street Team members. While Street Team members can receive rewards for their hard work, artists enjoy giving something back to the fans who make their livelihood possible.
