As we gear up for Furry Migration 2015, we have several staff positions available.
Almost all of these position all but guarantee 20 volunteer hours for voting rights. Plus, you will be able to offer direct input not only to the look and feel of this years convention, but also future conventions. This list will update as positions from various departments open up/ask for additional support and also get filled up as people step forward.
What is also nice is many of these positions DO NOT require you to work the entire convention. Many of them require extensive prep work prior to convention, but only around 4-9 hours of at convention work. This leaves plenty of time to enjoy the rest of your convention.
A Head position means this is new department and needs a lead.
Co-Head means there is existing Head that needs help or new position that could use up to 2 people.
Positions currently available:
Video rooms, Co-Head: creating playlist, getting rights, setting up and returning rooms; reports to programming. i got a main person willing to write letters and get rights, but still need co head and volunteers to make sure we have all night showings.
Game Show, This has been filled, but looking for 2 more volunteers as they want to run 2 games shows this year. If interested, I’ll put you in touch with them.
Artist Alley, Co-head, future head: Finalizing rules and hours, collecting forms and fees, perform lotteries and seating lists if necessary; reports to Conchair
Art show; Head and co, Head: One of our former heads went to pubs and other life got complicated, so this department has no lead currently. However, Database, grids, hang tabs, etc. and a good deal of “hard work” is already done, but still needs people to check in, process bids, sent out checks and reports. This department is mostly plug and play at this point; reports to Conchair
Volunteers; Co-head: help Migrate to digital reporting system, get expectations of needs from departments, assign volunteers, track and report volunteers and their hours at convention; Reports to Conchair
Sponsors; making sure that sponsors get their extra swag, work with hotel for banquet as we have a real restaurant this year, and implement any other perks we may have. Reports to Registration.
Iron Artist and Iron Pen: Co head. someone who wants to process entries and tally votes. This includes making sure entries are displayed anonymously and promptly. Content is confirmed and vote process traceable. Tally open votes and then presenting to GOH judges. Presenting results. Reports to Programming.
Fursuit games: Head is now Snap. Reports to Ringer in fursuiting. Ask either if you wish to help (if not here, Ringer may need some help for his other events)
Lastly, if you feel the convention is still missing that “essential something” but you are willing to put in the hours to make it happen, Please contact me and we will see what is possible.

I’m the guy in charge of the Game Shows, I know we are going to need some help at the con (survey tallying for Furry Feud, Contestant Gathering for both Shows, etc.) If you are interested go ahead and send me a message.
Had some important things to do with programming this weekend. But updating now.To Cence: Let me know what ETA is on Thursday, that will dictate a lot in the move in schedule. We get possession at Thursday 5pm and work that night and Friday morning to set things up. We just got hotel assignments so we are starting on implementation schedules now.
To Velli: Cypher (Tenpin) is currently lead but has 2 shows so I’m sure he could use the help. I leave implementation in his capable hands.
To: any night owls or Early birds! (or any nocturnal or early morning species) We have a lead for video rooms! But they could really use some help running them between hours of midnight to 9am (potentially). Get your easy volunteer hours by checking badges at door and watching furry series and movies.
