RMSS 2012 - Coordinator Positions

Postby bbookout » January 3rd, 2012, 10:33 am

Duties for RMSS 2012 are broken into three divisions: Operations, Logistics & Finance.
Each of those divisions into areas where we need specific coordinators.

What we need are volunteers to coordinate each of the three divisions besides each of the subdivisions.
Descriptions of the subdivision duties have not changed since last year and can be found in last year’s posting on this forum. The only one that has changed is the merging of Artwork & Merchandise Coordinator.


Here is the breakout of subdivisions for Operations:
Registration Tent Coordinator
Speaker Coordinator
ATM Judge Coordinator
Photo Judge Coordinator
GeoCache Coordinator
Children's Event Coordinator

Here is the breakout of subdivisions for Logistics:
Website Coordinator
Signage Coordinator
Food Coordinator
Raffle/Door Prize Coordinator
Packet Contents Coordinator
Badge Coordinator
Stand-up Coordinator
Tear-down Coordinator

Here is the breakout of subdivisions for Finance/Business:
Registration Coordinator
Artwork / Merchandise Coordinator
Vendors Coordinator

The idea behind breaking each coordinator into divisions is that way as director I only need to directly interface with the division head and then they coordinate directly with the subdivisions under them.

Anyone wanting to volunteer early? Please!!

The faster we can get started the better. Post back to hear so I can track the replies.

Thanks and hope see you soon!!!
