Volunteering at WisCon

We still have lots of ways to help and have immediate needs for volunteers. Please check out the volunteer information table near registration on the 2nd floor or e-mail me at klivdahl@gmail.com to sign up or for more information.

This year's volunteer thank you gift is a light weight tote bag with a beautiful WisCon logo by Jeanne Gomoll.
