DunDraCon Crew
Welcome to another year of DunDraCon Crew! Crewmember submissions are open, and as has been in past conventions, it is important that we get your submissions earlier rather than later. Please note that DDC 48 crew roles will be structured around current health and safety guidelines, which means some procedures may be different from previous years. Watch this space for further updates!
Crewmembers are essential to DunDraCon. Throughout the convention Sparky's helpers participate in everything from con registration to manning the info table, and a variety of jobs in between. We need cheerful, dependable people for all four days, and in all areas.
If you would like to work as Convention Crew, please complete the following form and press the Submit button at the bottom. Please be sure to include your e-mail address, as well as your evening phone number.
All potential crewmembers (except Senior Crew; you know who you are) must purchase an all-weekend membership by January 31, 2026.
All crewmembers are paid Santa Clara county minimum wage plus one dollar, per hour. All crewmembers also get a stylish commemorative button featuring Sparky, and a priority slip. We will be using the third-party app GigSmart, so crewmembers will need to make a GigSmart account if they do not already have one, though account creation can wait until it is time for crew to sign up for shifts. This is our second year using GigSmart, and while we have gotten over the initial hurdles, we are aware some of our crewmembers will need support from the Crew Coordinator and her highly-trained minions navigating a new-to-them system.
Exact times of shifts are dependent on many things, so they will not be finalized until much closer to DDC. We realize that you want to play in games, so take a look at our Events Page once games are posted and let our Crew Coordinator know when you'll be available. Shifts may be rearranged as necessary, but the earlier you send in your Crew form, the more likely you are to get the time slots and duties you've requested.
All crew shifts must be arranged with the Crew Coordinator beforehand. Unapproved hours will not be retroactively counted.
Important! You should have an acknowledgement of your Crew request from us within two weeks. If you do not hear from us within that time, please email our Crew Coordinator. Every year, there are a handful of submissions that never reach us for reasons outside our control. If you don't follow up in the event of a delay, we might never know you submitted a proposal.
If you encounter an error when attempting to send this form, you can access a blank text file of the form. Cut & paste it to your own machine, fill it out, and send to our Crew Coordinator.
