Want to help out but not sure how? Many of our volunteer jobs don’t require any knowledge of WordPress, just a cheerful, helpful attitude. <\/p>\n

Volunteer Jobs<\/h4>\n

Check-in and Registration<\/strong> \u2013 Check in registered attendees and hand out lanyards. Being really awesome with alphabetical order helps here.<\/p>\n

Swag and t-shirt station<\/strong> \u2013 Pre-conference prep work includes folding\/rolling shirts and organizing swag. Handing out t-shirts and swag on the day.<\/p>\n

Video<\/strong> \u2013 We need volunteers to act as camera operators. Great gig, since you can watch sessions at the same time. Video Experience REQUIRED.<\/p>\n

Food\/Beverage<\/strong> \u2013 The catering staff have this covered for the most part, but it would be helpful to have a few people keeping an eye on things and help around lunchtime.<\/p>\n

Happiness Bar<\/strong> (Afternoon Only) \u2013 Answer questions and help WordPress users fix problems with their sites. Must be able to show level of expertise to be selected for this gig.<\/p>\n

Emcees<\/strong> \u2013 Introduce speakers\/sessions and keep things running on time. Keep an eye on the clock and give speakers a heads up when they are down to 10 and 5 minutes, and let them know when their time is up. Brevity and wit a must.<\/p>\n

Runners<\/strong> \u2013 Work with the emcees, video people, speakers, and everyone else to keep things running smoothly. Make sure there\u2019s water for speakers, and provide support as needed for other event staff.<\/p>\n
