Volunteers needs for Guinness World Record Attempts at Dragon*Con
On what day? Saturday September 04 2010
When and Where for Which Event........
Super Heroes - Westin Peachtree Plaza hotel the Peachtree Ballroom (8th floor).
Doors open at 1:00 and you need to be there no later than 12:15pm for you
assignment
Star Trek - Sheraton Grand Ballroom. Doors are tentatively scheduled to open
around 7:30pm and will by no later than 8:00pm. You need to be there no later
than 7:00 for you assignment.
What we need that only YOU can provide,
YOU! we need YOU there to help pull this off. it takes a LOT of people to do a
varied array of tasks and duties that need to be accomplished in a very short
time frame to get those participants in the spaces, counted, in place and
documented. Roughly for every 40 people in the attempt we need ONE Volunteer
person for them. Given the fact that the Super Heroes Record is currently at
1245 people that's a lot of YOU that we need. Given the fact that current Star
Trek Record is around a 500 some odd that was set by some other con earlier this
year we want to CRUSH that record since this con stole the idea of setting World
Records from us in the first place, so again that is going to take a lot of YOU.
You need to be polite, a problem solver, a logical thinker,and sense of humor
wouldn't hurt.
You do NOT need a costume for either of these. You do get to be some of the few
and far between people that get to witness these things which are not open to
the general public or to Dragon*Con attendees who are not participating in the
attempts. There are other perks and advantages to Volunteering that will be
made known in a later email and just prior to attempts.
Some have already contacted me about this and if I have already spoken with you,
you are good to go. If you have not spoken to me yet and want to Volunteer for
both of these or for one or the other please email me at
eaves(dot)mike(at)gmail(dot)com with SE Staff in the Subject line.
Both of these are going to be an amazing time and here is your chance to not
only be in on them but to help make them happen and put Dragon*Con in the World
Records book.
