Join the AdeptiCon 2009 Staff!
Become a part of the AdeptiCon 2009 team! With all the extra space we’re going to have in 2009, we’re looking for volunteers who are excited and passionate about the hobby to help us continue AdeptiCon’s tradition of excellence.
We are looking for volunteers in the following areas:
• Operations Staff (Setup, Registration, Tech Support, Breakdown)
• 40K Tournament/Event Staff
• Fantasy Tournament/Event Staff
• Specialist Games Tournament/Event Staff
• Hobby Seminar Instructors
• Communications *
• Terrain Building (Chicago-area residency required) *
*These groups perform the majority of their work before AdeptiCon. All other groups do their work during the AdeptiCon weekend itself.
Note that with one exception (the Terrain Group), Chicago-area residency is NOT required, so no matter where you live you can help make AdeptiCon 2009 happen!
E-mail adeptuswindycity@gmail.com today with your name, contact info, and areas in which you’d be particularly interested in volunteering. A member of the AdeptiCon Council will get in touch with you. Planning for AdeptiCon 2009 begins in earnest, so join the team today!
