TrekTrax Atlanta Volunteer Information

TrekTrax Atlanta is committed to providing our attending membership with an outstanding convention experience as demonstrated by a commitment to unparalleled customer service.  To achieve this goal, our all-volunteer, fan-run convention is organized into various operational departments.  Opportunities to volunteer for at-con staff are available in many of these departments.  If you are interested in volunteering for TrekTrax Atlanta, please read the entire Policies & Requirements section below.  Departments, department heads, contact information and currently available opportunities are also given below.

Policies & Requirements
Previous experience on another convention's volunteer staff is preferred but not required.  If you do not have any previous convention experience, we will be looking for some other type of experience, skill or especially strong interest in the department you wish to work for.
Candidates for all volunteer opportunities who have not already purchased a convention membership will be asked to pay a $10 staff registration fee to cover certain basic overhead expenses such as con badge, lanyard, program book, con suite, etc.
Volunteer staff members receive a complimentary membership to the convention.
Volunteer staff members will be expected to work approximately twenty hours during the convention, generally in four-hour shifts.  This requirement may vary from department to department.  Each department head determines his department's exact requirements.
