Returning Staff Deadline: 8/1/10
New Staff
Starting to Sign Up: 8/1/10
General Staff Volunteering Deadline: 5/1/11

In order to participate as staff you must be at least 18 years or older. The first step to becoming staff is to look down at the list of available positions and pick one that you think suits you best. Please think carefully- and choose the best position. (Multiple positions are only given to experienced staffers)

Staff benefits include: free passes to the convention, free shirts, staff pie, and general staff goodness- which can only be felt the days of the convention but which is indescribably awesome to those who feel the rush. ^_^ We do not guarantee you a room; however, we will try to provide those staff who desperately need rooming an area to crash in. (If you're from Texas you have more of a chance than oh say, someone who lives fives minutes down the road. ^_~)

We do have staff meetings- but you aren't required to make them all. (some staffers never make any- but do well at the con because of experience and reading the forums) All of this information is posted on a private staff forum that you will gain access to once you become a staff member. Please check the staff forum at least once a month!

When you staff you are expected to work your schedule which might include missing out on certain events. It also means that you might have to be on call in case of emergencies- that you might have to work MORE than your scheduled time. We try to keep that to a minimum, and there are staffers who actively try to work the whole con (crazies ^_~), but sometimes it does happen. Staffing is work- it's fun work, but it's work. Please keep that in mind when applying. ^_^
