Charmed! Volunteers
Come join us and help make Charmed! a conference to remember. We can’t do it without you!
Charmed! is seeking volunteers. To make the con a success, we will need help in several areas:
- Door Dragons (aka security) – We need people to check badges and politely redirect people who try to enter con space without one, as well as make sure attendees that are leaving are dressed appropriately for non-convention (public space) areas.
- Class Runners – These volunteers check in with presenters on their assigned floor to ensure they have everything they need to give their class. Class Runners will also monitor the hallway for any issues and take a headcount of class areas.
- Set-up/Take-down – these volunteers get the convention areas, dungeon, and vendor space set up and torn down as needed. Many hands make light work here.
- Dungeon Monitors – these individuals help to promote safe play by keeping an eye on activity in the dungeon, and are people you can go to for help with any issues that come up during the play parties. (Note that Dungeon Monitors are required to have prior Dungeon Monitor or Dungeon Assistant experience. First aid certification preferred but not required.)
- Dungeon Assistants – Assistant to the on-shift dungeon monitor, the Dungeon Assistant acts as a second pair of eyes for the DM as well as a “runner” to fetch water and supplies as needed. Dungeon Assistants also manage equipment signup boards. No prior dungeon assistance is required.
- Registration – these volunteers help people get their badges and con materials when they arrive. Registration volunteers will be required to sign a confidentiality agreement, which is kept on file by Black Rose.
- Consent Team – This position will require you to be versed in consent policies, able to take a consent report, and support people through consent needs. All necessary training will be provided, no prior Consent Team experience required, do not worry if you’ve not done this before!
- On Call – There’s a gazillion miscellaneous things that need to be done and sometimes people need to call off for their shifts; if you’re up for the unpredictable, this job is for you.
- Lead Volunteers – these volunteers will have an elevated position with a high level of responsibility. You may be asked to give training sessions (you will be trained beforehand, don’t worry!), manage the team you are assigned, step in for a shift when no one else can, communicate with our Volunteer Coordinators any issues that are happening ASAP, and other tasks that are needed as they arise. (Previous experience volunteering at Charmed! is required.)
- Volunteer Assistants – Formerly known as “Assistants to Kitty” or “ATKs”, these volunteers take a rotating leadership position
- Community Liaisons – We are looking for assistants for our BIPOC and Disabilities Liaisons and are hoping to find two people that are representative of those communities who are as passionate as ConCom is about making Charmed! inclusive and welcoming to everyone. (Note: Community liaisons have already been selected for Charmed!2027)
- Tech Crew – The onsite technical engineers of the convention, Tech Crew manages broadcasting select classes to the convention Discord, as well as any technical troubleshooting. (Note: Tech Crew has a separate application form and timeline, and Tech Crew members cannot volunteer for another position.)
