Timing, Activities, Volunteers

The Awards Ceremony is Friday, August 17th at the Indiana Roof Ballroom starting at 9:30.

Due to time constraints and the VIG reception dinner occuring just before, there will only be half an hour from the time the doors open until the ceremony starts. All those with Gen Con badges are welcome to attend.

Doors open at 9pm for cocktails and a chance to get your opening bids in on our Silent Auction.

Ceremony will be over by midnight.

Afterwards, depending on budget and room constraints, there will be Stuff To Do. Somewhere. I'll update when I get more info.


As for Volunteers, there are four main areas in which peeps can help at Gen Con:
1. Bag stuffing. We're getting 1,000 dice courtesy of the the peeps at YourGamesNow.com, and will need to stuff 'em with a card into baggies for distribution.
2. Booth set up and tear down. Set up is Wednesday. Tear down is Sunday after convention closes.
3. Awards ceremony help: we'll need ushers mostly, and Ambassadors: peeps whose job it is to work the room, help distribute/teach games, etc.
4. Booth volunteers: Crothian's got that well covered in another thread.

PS- the Gelflings might be bribed to offer babysitting for cash and/or Generic Tickets if peeps are looking for help in that regard.

I'm running a game Wed, so won't be able to help with setup this time (not that I was that much help the last time ), but I might be free during breakdown.

Peeps?



Can't we stuff bags of dice at the ENWorld booth?

I'll help with the breakdown on Sunday. What time on Weds. will the set-up be? (I'm running a game at the Ram from 1 to 5 and then the GC forum Stink afterwards but I can be free in the morning).

EDIT: I can stuff baggies too!

I plan to be in Indy on Wednesday morning. Let me know when and where to help set up! My brother will be there, as well, so credit me with the strength of two ordinary men.

I'll help with Bag Stuffing and Booth Tear down.

I suspect you've already got something lined up, but I would love to DJ at the ENnies.

I might be interested in doing something ambassadorial and/or ushing at the ceremony; also, depending on when you start putting stuff up, we'll likely be able to help a bit with booth set up as well.

I might need you to help Hound out- dj achilles might not be able to make it.

I will see what I can do about being around to help with setup and tear down. I may also have some time for stuffing bags.

Let me know if you would like me to do anything else. I will make every effort to find the time as long as A) I don't interfere with the wife's plans AND B) I don't have to make major compromises to my plans.
