Volunteer at GOBfest!

GOBfest is a non-profit event and would be impossible without volunteers! We can always use more hands on deck. As a volunteer, your benefits include free registration, camaraderie, a volunteer appreciation party, and, of course, massive street cred!

Available volunteer tasks include:

• poster distribution and promotion
• set up and tear down
• running GOBfest hosted games and tournaments (setting up games, explaining rules, and answering questions)
• staffing the registration desk, concession area, or gaming library
• assisting with the auction and/or flea market
• and more!

Please note that all volunteers must work during two time slots (minimum), which may include setup and/or take down. They are free to participate in any events of their choice during the rest of the time. Additionally, volunteers must attend one of our mandatory volunteer training sessions (choice of Saturday, April 6, 10:30am-1:30pm or Wednesday, April 10, 5:30-8:30 pm). These sessions will be held at the Highlands branch of the Edmonton Public Library (6710 118 Ave NW). If you are interested in volunteering, please register using a volunteer badge (to secure your game spots)! FYI, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to fulfill your shift or activity requests, but we will do our best!
