CONvergence Needs Help Moving!

After many years of toting barges and hefting bales, our Moving Crew has decided to hang up their back-braces.

We thank them and wish them well - but it means WE NEED HELP!

CONvergence is looking for volunteers to help move stuff into the hotel at the beginning of the weekend, and move stuff out at the end. Moving-in activities occur on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday (morning) this year. And moving out happens Sunday evening and Monday after the con.

The stuff to be moved:

• Some of it comes from our office in St. Paul, so we're looking for a few good peoples to take a truck over there (we'll provide the truck) and load things up, and return them after the weekend.
• Most of it arrives outside the hotel in gigantic storage containers that just need bodies to unload them into our "storage room" in the hotel.

If you are interested/available in putting in your volunteering time without losing one precious minute of your convention experience, contact Ishmael Williams at facilities@convergence-con.org.
