“As a WordPress newbie myself, one of the most beneficial things I’ve done in order to learn about and embrace the WordPress community is to volunteer!”
It’s a great way to get involved, meet new friends, connect with existing ones and just overall have a great time. We hope you consider giving us a hand at WordCamp Philly 2018. I.t will be great to work with you!

- They run the registration table, welcoming attendees as they arrive.
- They distribute swag to attendees.
- They serve as room managers, guards and runners, helping keep the speaker tracks on schedule.
- They assist attendees at the Happiness Bar, providing tech support.
- They answer questions and provide directions as hallway monitors.
- They help break down after WordCamp Philly ends.
There may be other miscellaneous roles that will need to be filled as a need arises. No prior WordCamp experience is required so you are highly encouraged to apply!
