Do you need help with anything? Do you have a plan of emailing each group with details before the conference? I think that may alleviate some uncertainties onsite.

Message-ID: Hi Ruben and volunteer team, I would like a process set in place for those that sign up to help tutorials. So far I have: - at 8:00am, go to C125 (staff office) to pick up a roster for the class - go to the tutorial room and check people in against the roster - if the tutorial runs into any issues with AV, there is an AV staffer located in each room, please bring the situation to them. - if there are any issues outside of AV before the tutorial begins, please call Ewa 415 319 5237 There is no green room during the tutorial days so I am not sure what the below person is referring to. Overall, I need a process nailed down so I can email them these instructions before the conference and also inform registration so they know what to say when asked. Please let me know by tomorrow how you would like me to proceed.

Jackie Begin forwarded message: *From: *Jamiel Almeida *Subject: **Re: PyCon 2016 - Important Information* *Date: *May 17, 2016 at 9:27:02 PM CDT *To: *PyCon Registration Hey, registration team, I signed up for tutorial volunteer, I have experience from doing it last year, but I wanted to ask a few questions that were difficult to answer last year. Who is supposed to have the role-call list for attendees for each tutorial? Who coordinates tutorial volunteers in case there is a mix-up? Last year it was a bit of a back-and-forth and running between tutorial room and the green room, and bugging Yarko and Doug N. pretty much non-stop. So I hope asking these questions early helps address these.

You are receiving this message because you have signed up to volunteer as a tutorial host on either May 28th and/or May 29th. Below is a list of quick instructions for the day of: - one hour to thirty minutes before the tutorial begins, go to C125 (staff office) to pick up a roster for the class you signed up for (we will have a master list in the room as well). The earlier the better because attendees tend to go into their tutorial rooms pretty early. If you arrive at your tutorial and there are people sitting, please ask to see their badge so you can check them off the list. - if you signed up to be a "far greeter": your role is to help people find their tutorial room. - if you signed up to a "near greeter": your role is to check people in against the list received from C125.* If there is only one volunteer per tutorial, please take the role of checking people in. *Once you have checked in the attendees, please leave the tutorial and bring the check in sheet back to room C125. - if the tutorial runs into any issues with AV, there is an AV staffer located in each room, please bring the situation to them. Other questions you may get: - "Can we get more power?" The answer is "no - what we ordered is all we could afford, please share what is available" - "When is break and when is lunch?" Breaks are in the lobby at 10:15am and 3pm. Lunch is in the Oregon Ballroom at 12:20pm. - if there are any issues outside of the above or an emergency please call Ewa 415 319 5237 or go to room C125. If it is a serious medical emergency, please call 911 first. - if you signed up to be a lunch host, please come to the Oregon Ballroom 10 minutes before lunch. The main task is to make sure people have a badge. If they do not have a badge, they should not be allowed to enter the lunch room. - PyCon's code of conduct is available here: https://us.pycon.org/2016/about/code-of-conduct/. It also includes procedural instructions. *If you have any questions before the conference, please email us at pycon-volunteers at python.org . (please do not email me directly as I will be traveling and working onsite soon).* **Please note that the Oregon Convention Center requires us to use their own badge checkers in the area, but they only make sure people are wearing a badge and will not check names off a list. Most importantly: Thank you so much for volunteering at PyCon. The time you put in helps our attendees have a great experience at the conference. We truly appreciate you taking the time to make PyCon 2016 the best PyCon yet!
