dragoncon_lj_archiveI want everyone who has responded to these thread about "Ideas for next year" to actually come volunteer. Please!
What makes you all think we have not thought of all of these ideas?? And you know what will make these ideas a success??? People!!! We need volunteers!!
Only half of the people that we had badges for in Security showed up to volunteer. So we were severely short-handed!!
We work the long hours because no one else is willing to work the basic 25, so everyone has to pick up the slack.
We had many of our volunteers able to "work" the panels they wanted to and were able to see the panel up close! They didn't have to stand in line for 4+ hours for registration. Nor did they have to stand in line for 2 hours to see a panel like Stan Lee but was able to watch it up close!
If we had a full staff, no one would have to work 8-10 hours day!
