Pokemon USA, Inc is looking for Professors to run Pokemon TCG demos in the Nintendo booth at Origins, San Diego Comic Con and GenCon. Our volunteers will be demoing the Pokémon TCG to any and all who would like to learn to play, or simply want to brush up on the rules. If you are already planning on attending one of these conventions and you would like to lend a hand, please read the following information.

With a few exceptions, each shift is two hours long. Each volunteer must commit to at LEAST two hours of demoing time (unless it is a one hour shift), though you may work more hours if you wish. Each volunteer will receive 6 EX Hidden Legends boosters per hour of work as compensation.

In addition, we will need additional assistance for tournament support at GenCon. We have several shifts available for scorekeepers, booster draft coordinators, and judges. Please inquire for scheduling if you are interested in any of these tournament support shifts.

Please contact me at [email protected] with the following information:

First and last name,
POP ID,
Shift desired (convention, date and time)

Once again, we appreciate everything you have done for the Pokemon TCG, and your continued support. We look forward to seeing you during the upcoming convention season!
 
I'm interested in working a shift or two during Origins, but I'll be working as a judge so I don't know what my schedule of availability is yet.

6 packs that sell for about $3.29 or more apiece.
That is equal to $19.74 or more an hour.
Rather good pay indeed.
 
I know we sent in an email volunteering to help at ORIGINS. We haven't received any conformation information. Should we send another email?

Mike,,,

I want to highly recommend that you consider

David Nelson, 306

as volunteers...............

They have literally been part of the backbone of help at all of my tournaments....

Great help/volunteers and highly recommended....
 
Ditto what Terry said for Dave R from Va. who has contacted you guys to volunteer. Great guy and knows his stuff.
 
Will the volunteers have to purchase the entry passes to GenCon, or are those supplied by you guys, or do we even need them at all?
 
Volunteers need to purchase their own convention badges. We're only looking for volunteers that are already attending the convention.

Volunteers are being compensated at a rate of 6 Hidden Legends boosters per hour they work. Other than our gratitude, that is all the compensation that we are offering.
