Volunteer

Special volunteer rate of $45 for three hours worked!

Thank you for your interest in volunteering! NMLL is an all volunteer organization.  Without community members offering their help, these events simply would not happen. Volunteers help the events run smoothly and ensure the safety of all who attend. Volunteering is a great way to meet new people and to give back.

We have three hour volunteer positions available from simple to skilled. Not only will you get entry to the event at a reduced rate, you’ll get that warm fuzzy feeling from knowing that you’ve helped your community.

Volunteering is a commitment to the event and should be taken seriously. Our team relies on volunteers to show up for their shifts and handle the job they signed up for. We make sure that our volunteers know what is expected of them and who to contact in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Every position is important to the event. Our volunteers are an important part of our team, representing NMLL in all that they say and do at the event. NMLL expects that volunteers will follow the rules that all attendees agree to abide by and behave in a manner that demonstrates respect for themselves, for others, for the organization, and for the event.

 

Volunteer Positions Available

Please indicate your first and second preferences on the volunteer request form.

 FULL! Registration

Registration volunteers are the friendly, organized, and efficient first faces that attendees will see when they arrive. These volunteers will ensure that all paper work is filled out properly, identification is checked, money collected, and attendees given wrist bands. Registration sometimes gets busy, so being able to remain friendly and calm during high traffic times is important.

FULL! Class Monitors

These volunteers make sure our presenters have what they need. A monitor will meet with the presenter of each class to see if they have everything they need, including water. They will also be the time keepers, making sure the presenters know how much time they have left, and will distribute and collect class review forms.

Greeters/Door Monitors/Security

Our greeters/monitors ensure that only the attendees of our events are in our space. We need greeters at our doors and in the hallway to check that everyone who passes through has a wristband. Greeters will also be tasked with shutting the doors in case of an emergency.

Dungeon Monitors

Dungeon monitors make sure that people are being safe while in our dungeon. They should have knowledge of what to keep an eye out for and be able to intervene in a respectful way if needed. Experience, first aid training and CPR certifications are a plus. All hours are evening and late night.

 Full! First Aid Crew

These volunteers staff the dungeon and manage the first aid station. First Aiders provide back up in case of injury or illness. They don’t take the place of EMS or medical care. First aid training is necessary. CPR certification, experienced EMT, Medic or other healthcare professionals are preferred. All hours are evening and late night.

Equipment Loading and Transport

Have a truck and/or a strong back?  We can use your help!  Loading and transport are needed to and from the storage area to the hotel both before and after the event: Friday and Sunday afternoons.  You can volunteer for one or both.

Set-up/Tear-down Crew

These volunteers help in transitioning our spaces throughout the event. This includes setting up for dungeon parties, classes, and shows. We also need help at the end of the event to help pack up everything to move out of the hotel on time. This position is important to help us stay on schedule. The more people we have, the faster and easier it is.

FULL! Bootblack

Are you a bootblack? Get your shine on and provide service to the community with your special skills. Bring your supplies, keep your tips. We have bootblack stands and hours available Saturday day and evening. Work as little or as much as you desire. Three hours of service gets you a volunteer discount! Sign up soon for the best chance to get the shifts you want. Experience required.
