Hello, I am interested in volunteering for PyCon 2021, particularly for PyCon Active! However, I haven't yet attended a PyCon before, and I'm still unsure if I will attend, so I have a few questions. I understand that volunteers must register for the conference, but do they pay the full fee? Also, for PyCon Active, are there more details available for what the volunteering entails? And how many hours of volunteering are required and on which days from Wednesday to Sunday? Would volunteers still be available to participate in other activities? Thank you! Chris
Hi Chris, Thanks for reaching out! As you noted, volunteers do need to register for PyCon, and indeed do need to pay the full fee. As a volunteer, you're asked to contribute as much time as you feel comfortable -- no hard requirement, just one "slot" in the volunteering spreadsheet (see https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cwSH8J6rzET8-9B4cP1TpRrQ5JkpXegOhgUR...).
