Where are volunteers welcomed?
« on: August 12, 2010, 10:14:47 pm »
So the deadlines have past, and the managers should have all the people they need to do their job at Kumoricon.  Well what if they don't have all the people they wanted, what if they need more!  If there are people that want to volunteer and help fill in the holes where would they they go to say, "hey let me help out?"  There are a lot of different things to help out with, so who should we go talk to?  I know there was an operations room on the main floor, and there was a programing room on the creation station floor last year, but what about this year?

I was thinking I could help out friday, but last year..... ya until an hour before reg we didn't even have those main rooms set up.  What to do?


**UPDATED INFORMATION**

List of contacts to help with volunteering:
  
   At Kumoricon - Volunteer desk - Near Information desk, if there is space.

   Street Team and the Press Coordinator - PM Shingami_lover - http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=3806

   Yojimbo - operations@kumoricon.org  or PM Kylite http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=178

   Gaming - gaming@kumoricon.org or cc it to programming@kumoricon.org and Jaki'll direct it to the gaming staff!

   Button making! - Rathany http://www.kumoricon.org/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=681

   Creation Station - Ask what you can do while you are visiting the room.

maid squad is looking for more volunteers... though you'd have to dress as a maid (your own maid outfit of your choosing)

I don't have a dress, and a butler outfit I'm not too interested in wearing sadly.  Otherwise I might have helped there ^^

I'm glad you want me, I just want to know who all I would have to talk too.  I know you might want help with setup before con.  I know where to find the yoji office when we start, just not where/who to go to before hand to see what is up.

Also, pre-con, I might put up some requests on the forums (usually last minute) for help with various things.  I have many buttons to make.

There are usually ways folks can plug in at Creation Station, if anyone is interested. :)
Easy stuff, such as keeping art supplies organized. And getting to work on your art or fanfic contest entries while helping monitor the room is a fun way to volunteer, "if that's what you're into" <--sung in best "Flight of the Conchords" voice.

I have a friend who's interested in volunteering to help out with the Auction.  As far as I know, we'll need her help.

To anyone interested in volunteering, stop by the Volunteer desk during the convention.  We'll work around your schedules and any departments you'd like to help with.
