  • Laminate the "Looking for Players"/"Looking for Teacher" signs (still use neon colored paper)
  • Print large posters 16x20
  • Put vendors on stage instead of gaming tables (lighting not great for gaming)
  • Plastic name tag/pins for Staff

  • Give at least 2 hours of staff time prior to public entry
  • Cashier for snacks
  • Vendors or RPGs on stage
  • Kids gaming room?
    • Licensed (?) childcare workers
    • Kid check in / check out
    • Kid's ticket gives access to this room + main con with parent

Things I am working on

  • POS through WooCommerce -- had it this year but the iPad was faster / easier
    • This keeps all of our transactions in one place
  • Improving checkin scanning and day to day counting
  • Thinking about how to better utilize volunteers rather than paid staff

IT stuff

  • Discord rollout
  • BGG integration with forum
  • Vendor portal
