Check out the list below to see more details about the different volunteer opportunities:<\/p>\n Registration \u2013 Check in registered attendees and hand out name tags. Being really awesome with alphabetical order helps here.<\/p>\n Happiness Bar \u2013 Help other WordPress users with their sites. Only available to volunteers with demonstrated WordPress prowess.<\/p>\n Room Runners \u2013 Work with the emcees, video people, speakers, and everyone else working in the room to keep things running smoothly. Make sure there\u2019s water for speakers, and provide support as needed for other event staff.<\/p>\n Casual Runners \u2013 Handle the unexpected things that always seem to happen at events.<\/p>\n Time Keepers – Keep things running on time.

We need people to sit outside of these rooms (maybe an hour or two at a time?) to guard everyone\u2019s stuff.<\/p>\n Airport Pickups \u2013 Pickup speakers from the airport and take them to their hotels or local lodging. These volunteers must have reliable cars, insurance, and safe driving practices.<\/p>\n Pre-event Prep \u2013 Help out with some of tasks that need to happen in the days leading up to WordCamp San Francisco.<\/p>\n Miscellaneous Prep \u2013 Dole out random assistance here and there, as needed \u2013 running errands, etc.<\/p>\n
