The planning and preparation are nearly done, but we need people to help out during the show, which is being held August 7-9 at the BWI Airport Marriott in Maryland. Specific "volunteer opportunities" are:
AFDCS Promotion/FDC Information (2-hour shifts at the table in the bourse area)
- AFDCS Sales (2-hour shifts at the table in the bourse area)
- Affixing Stamps to Covers (one person for each of the 3 days)
- Hospitality Suite (one person to open, one to close each night, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, with some overlap)
- Silent Auction Closeout (2 needed, Saturday night only, 10 pm to midnight)
The Hospitality Suite opens each evening at 8 pm and closes at midnight. Besides keeping an eye on things, the volunteer will put out additional snacks and supplies as needed. The AFDCS table will be in the bourse area. The Hospitality Suite is just across the hall: No long hikes as at GASS! No need to use GPS as at some other shows!
If you are available to help — just two hours! — please email coordinator Ralph Nafziger now at nafzigerralphh@gmail.com and tell him when and for what you are available.
