Pacificon 2012 Volunteer Registration 

Volunteer Opportunities

We appreciate the support of the many dedicated volunteers, who have contributed their time and energy to creating the greatest Amateur Radio events on the West Coast. Come help us in producing this year’s ARRL National Convention at Pacificon.

Most volunteer activity occurs on site immediately preceding, during, or following the convention and a minimum of a two hour commitment is preferred.  Brief descriptions of volunteer duties with indications of any helpful experience or skills are shown. No one is expected to work the entire time!  Suggested shift lengths are shown for each task.

Please let us know if you can work multiple shifts.  All Volunteers will receive a Pacificon 2012 t-shirt. Volunteers who work a total of 8 hours will have their entry fee refunded ($23).
