If you have not yet registered and are considering volunteering at this year’s convention please register here and then visit the Volunteers section of our website. No experience required! Love of Second Life, the Second Life Community and the desire to help is all that is needed. A smile and your help will ensure the success of this year’s convention.
I also thought I would share here what the convention has meant to me. I started as a Volunteer at the very first SLCC held in New York in 2005. After meeting Residents of Second Life and being inspired by those Residents that formed the Convention I was hooked. The next year I came on as an Organizer and became the point person and organizer of the Volunteers (a role I still hold today), and sponsorships as well as handled the catering for the event. It was at the end of that convention, while still in San Francisco that I officially came on board as a Lead Organizer. It was an honor then and still is today.
As I tell everyone I meet, Second Life Residents are the greatest people on the face of this earth. When we meet in real life (RL), there are no awkward getting to know you moments. Having known some people for years inside Second Life, I can tell you first hand the bonds made at SLCC each year are enduring. We are bound by like interests, shared goals within the Community and a great respect and admiration of each other.
Our attendees are THE most important part of the convention, for without YOU the convention would cease to exist. It is your single contribution by attending that brings life to the Second Life Community Convention each year. If you have the desire this year, take the next step to register and be part of the SLCC10 Volunteers!
Thank you and looking forward to meeting YOU at SLCC10 in Boston!
Have a Happy July 4th!
