Call for Volunteers

[P.J.]

I figured I'd ask the question here, since I don't want to start a whole new thread on it.

I've never volunteered at Championships, but I might this year, and I don't know how it works. If you're affiliated with a team that is competing and you volunteer, are you assigned to the same division as your team? Or is it random?

If you are an inspector, referee, or scorekeeper, you cannot do anything involving your affiliated teams, but you could still be working in the same division.

As an inspector, I assume you need to be near your team as a chaperone. I will be in the division that my team is in, if possible with the needs of the other LRIs.
However, you may not inspect your team, a team you have been on in the past or have some affiliation with. I won't even inspect teams who I feel I can't be objective with. FRC and I are very serious about this policy. Everyone needs to know that their inspector has no prejudice for them or another team.

Al, do you need more inspectors? We have 3 experienced inspectors coming and I will inform the others to sign up on VIMS if so.

Tim?,
I don't have an up to date report yet so all I can suggest is signing up on VIMS. The VC will make the decisions. I think I am pretty close though.
