    In the last Community forum meeting, the fact that MNfurs needs more volunteers was addressed. I offered to post a little something on here and was given the OK.

     

    Welcome to The Stable!

     

    This post will be for people to post their willingness to volunteer and the skills/hours they have available. This will make it extremely easy for staff of both MNfurs and Furry Migration (If you’d like to help with that!) to find people when they need them. You may even be asked to join a staff position!

    Here is an example of what would be a good post. (Admins let me know if you want more/less info and ill change it)

    Hi guys, thanks for posting your willingness!

    Might be a bit too much info here at the moment – just for personal safety sake is why I suggest this.  But you all have lots of good skills, and I’d highly encourage you to email [email protected] to help.

    We’ve got your info, thank you so much!

    With the personal information removed. Would it still be possible to keep the stable open to the public? 😛

    Furry Gamers:  if you’re going to be at Furry Migration, would you like to volunteer to organize a tabletop game? Be it a round of FLUXX, Magic:  the Gathering, or even a tabletop RPG, I’d like to know about it.

    I’m Sylvan. I’ve been running Gaming at CONvergence for over a decade, have helped start 2 local Gaming cons over the years, and will be running Tabletop Gaming at Furry Migration in 2014. I’m looking for refs and people who’d like to sponsor a little, fun event during the con.

    What do you think? Let me know!

    Please feel free to use the sign-up link on the Furry Migration Web site:  http://con.furrymigration.org/programming/gaming/submit/

    Join us!

    Yours,

    Sylvan
