Our Treasured Volunteers

Be a volunteer!

Volunteers are a hidden treasure!   Without volunteers doing all of the not so little things in front of and behind the scenes a terrific conference just doesn't happen!  There's lots of fun things you can do to help at APLA2012. Browse some of the tasks we'd love for you to help us with.

Hospitality/Registration Desk

Want to be one of those friendly faces everyone looks for when they arrive at APLA?  Ann Myers would love to hear from you! 

Directional beacon

Sometimes people get a little lost going from one session or event to another. It's nice to see a familiar smiling face to help guide our lost treasures!

Social media promoter

Do you love to tweet, flickr, blog?   Everyone can be a social media promoter.  Whether you are an attendee, a speaker, or a panelist you can embed your own customized schedule, promote your own session, and spread the word about APLA2012.  We'd love to have lots of social media mayhem going on!
