Like all WordCamps, WordCamp Sacramento is planned, organized, and run by volunteers from our local WordPress community — and a critical part of making WordCamp Sacramento a success is our day of event volunteers — and we need your help!
As a volunteer, you’ll help our event run smoothly, make sure our attendees have a great time, and bolster our local WordPress community. Plus, it’s a great opportunity to meet more people in the community, deepen relationships, and give back to the open source software we all use and love.
Benefits of being a volunteer include:
- Being an essential part of the running of a successful WordCamp
- Have the opportunity to meet speakers from all over the world
- Helping to support the local WordPress community
- Meet WordPress users and professionals from the greater Sacramento area and beyond
- Great way to make new contacts and meet others excited about WordPress
Official volunteer roles and responsibilities will be defined as the event draws closer. A mandatory volunteer meeting will be held at the venue prior to the event, date TBD.
Sample volunteer roles include:
- Registration Desk — Checking in attendees, speakers, sponsors, and other volunteers in the morning each day, handing out swag, and/or manning the registration table during the day.
- Helping the organizers, room managers, or speakers with anything they need
- Photography
- Helping out with lunch or the after party
- Giving directions
- Running audio/video in sessions, and/or helping with microphones during Q&A sessions
- Set Up / Clean Up
- Supporting the Help Desk/Happiness Bar
If you’re interested in being a volunteer, let us know using the form below and if there is a specific area you’d like to volunteer in.
Please note, it is likely you will NOT be able to attend some or all speaker sessions (unless supporting speakers or managing a room). Please don’t apply if you simply wish to attend the WordCamp as an attendee, thanks!
