Volunteer Managers for DebConf6
Note: This page was practically copied over from DC5.
The Tasks of a Volunteer Manager
In the past we had a workforce of 30+ helpers in Oslo with coordinators for 2 bigger task forces (reception/information and sleeping quarters guard). Those coordinators would
- find people to man the stations during all (necessary) times (perferably well in advance; oslo had detailed time tables where people could sign up),
- answer the questions the volunteers have, show them (==perform) the necessary tasks
write up the FAQs for each job (e.g. for the information: telefon numbers to the janitor, the taxi cab company, the code to disarm the fire alarm...),
- know where your volunteers are (if conference attendees look for one (we should use special colored tshirts for volunteers)
- find something nice and motivating to give as a present to the volunteers.
- explain the general goal the volunteers should have: make the event a pleasent, save and smooth one for everyone (including themself).
In Oslo there was a general meeting two days ahead of the start of debcamp with general inforation (pep-talk and real info).·
