Thursday, the day before the con, I was told there were volunteer opportunities to help set up and stuff. I live in the area, so I would love to come down to help.

I was wondering if there is a specific time that would be appropriate to come down in help?

If I am not mistaken (If I am,Someone higher up please correct me since its been ages since I read the plan) They are starting stuff at Noon. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

No, Noon is not correct.  I think it's in the evening; I'll get the volunteers Dept to post the correct time.

Er...

I want to say 4pm.

I'm sorry. I realize that's not very helpful. I'll give Jen a call in the morning and get the official answer. However, 4pm seems about right.

Okay, I just got off the phone with our Volunteers Department and she said to show up somewhere around 5-5:30 pm on Thursday.  You can show up later if needed, we'll be working for a while.

Sorry for making everyone run around to get a time. ^-^;; But thank you very much.

I can't wait to come and help out.

No problem, we needed to get it on the web anyway.

Thanks for the information! But I was wondering if you had any clue how long it might take, just a vague idea based on last year or something. Just curious. :3

It takes a couple hours, and will depend on how many people show up to help. Could be three hours *crosses fingers REALLY hard* could be eight... but we go until ti's done of course. I'd put an average educated guess at four to five hours assuming the best in volunteers show.

Well, around 4 - 4:30 we're going to head to the warehouse and load up the truck.  You're welcome to do that, but having 30 people doesn't really work out so we don't tell people to show up until later.
