Hi Sudoers,
Summary:
• what: Volunteers wanted for hacker-y workshop event
• where: Tech Liminal in downtown Oakland
• when: This weekend, Dec. 6-7.
• why: Help out a fun community event, get free workshops and dinner, and
meet other awesome people!
• how: reply to this email or email volunteer(a)workshopweekend.net
The 10th Workshop Weekend is taking place in downtown Oakland this weekend
(Dec 6-7) and we're looking for a few volunteers to help check people in,
give directions, help connect laptops, and handle random issues as they
come up. (Most of the time will be relatively relaxed, and feel free to
bring a book or something to work on when nothing's going on.)
Volunteers are asked to help out for a 4-hour time block on Saturday on
Sunday. We'll treat you to dinner on Friday night and your admission is on
us (normally $40) if you want to take any of the workshops offered during
the evening.
Learn more about Workshop Weekend by checking out our workshop catalog at
http://workshopweekend.net/catalog -- and if you're interested, let me know
or email volunteer(a)workshopweekend.net
I hope to see some of you there!
Best wishes,
J.D.
