Question: "Local" requirement for event volunteers?

[rich2202]

This was my first year volunteering, and I had no problem being a Robot Inspector at the first regional. At the second regional, they still had need for Refs, so I was able to do that.

RI's are primarily needed on Thursdays of Regionals (Wednesday for the Championship). So, if you can't make that day, then that is a problem. Note: If you can only make it that day, usually that is ok.

If the Regional is fully staffed with returning volunteers, then I could see how they would be chosen first.

Note: Apply early. Some people I talked with submitted in October. Also, next time, try talking with the Head Ref and Lead RI. They might remember you next year.

Only October? Last time I saw my key volunteer, she told me I was signed up through 2020 already
