There doesn't seem to be any information up at the moment and the forum doesn't seem to be visited frequently by the staff. I emailed the volunteer email a few weeks ago and didn't get a response but when I messaged Trick directly I got a fairly timely response in my specific question.
If no one gets on in a few days and gives you specific information, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to email Trick directly to let them know that people are interested!

We apologize for not replying in an timely fashion. We have assigned more staff members to keep an eye on these forums so we may address any future concerns. Thank you for bringing this to our attention! |

Heres what Teigan came up with:
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Arizona Fur Con! Volunteers get into the convention at a discounted rate by working 4 hours minimum.
Below are the departments that may interest you in helping with:
Programming:
- Panel moderators who make sure the panelists make it to their panels
- Counting how many people go to each panel
- Making sure the panelists have water
Registration:
- Helping attendees register
- Sitting at the desk
- Distributing badges
- Pre-registration (checking IDs to confirm attendees from a list that registered early and give them their badges & swag)
Guests:
- Guest liaisons
DISCLAIMER: You need to have a legal driver’s license as well as a vehicle during the convention
Security:
- Walking the halls
- Checking badges at the door
- Reinforce the rules when needed
- Peace bonding weapons
- Line Control
- Stand at doorways
Costuming:
- Masquerade Helpers (help out and babysitting judges during the events)
- Headless Lounge
- Fursuit Games
- Dance Competition
Please list any other experience you have and what you’re most interested in!
- Teigan Clark, Volunteer Director of Arizona Fur Con

Quick update: We already have the Tech positions filled. The judge handlers are filled too, but there is need of people to be handlers and stage hands for the Masquerade and the Dance competition. |

What about pre-con volunteers? Do we have a con program? A mascot? Any of the content filled? Will there be any sort of charity auctions and have the badges for admittance to the con been designed yet?
I'd love to help with things in whatever way I can. I'm from PA and I sort of miss AC but going back just for it isn't going to be something that is realistic. So, I'd love to help AZFC in whatever way I can! Maybe we could make it the new AC out here in AZ? lol!

If volunteers are still needed, I'm more than willing to help out in various positions. Since tech is filled, registration and/or security seem like the best options.
Do I just contact Teigan?

No. I haven't received anything. Not about volunteering, or my interest in getting a table, or if there are any tables available... I don't want to buy a pass for $45 if one comes with a table and I can get one, but it's a little irritating, I'll admit, that I keep asking questions and no one is getting back to me at all |
