Will need a small handful of volunteers to help with panels – rearranging areas as needed, holding wireless mics to bring around to attendees who want to ask questions, and minor adjustments to volume if needed on speakers.
Accessibility
Seeking one accessibility manager to review and ensure that our setups are accessible for individuals with special and unique needs. Ideally, they will be able to assist us in obtaining at least one ASL interpreter for major panels, as well as do an on-site review during setup to ensure that all accessibility needs are addressed.
Guest Liaison
We need one to two dedicated guest liaisons to assist the guests of honor, their managers, and assistants with whatever they may need during the conference. They will be their main contact during the weekend to ensure that our guests are happy.
Logistics
We need as many available hands for load-in and load-out as possible (Thursday all day and Sunday evening, respectively). This will be a labor-intensive role involving raising pipes and drapes, moving tables and chairs, stocking the con store, hanging posters, deploying signage, and assembling racks and displays.
