Call for ECs and Leads
Hi, folks. LJ Bittersweet, here. I need to level with my community. Interfuse 2024 almost didn’t happen. We lost 2 of our ECs unexpectedly. There was some debate as to whether the event could be pulled off. If it hadn’t been for me and Vespertine stepping up to EC more or less at the last practical minute, and Luci slogging thru one last year as EC after they swore they were retired, I don’t think we would have had an event. This brings me to my point. Luci still needs to retire from their EC position, and now Tara needs to step down so she can focus on her family and career as well. We need to fill 2 empty EC positions to keep the event running at its best and 1 EC position to keep the event running at all. If any among you wants more year round involvement in and connection to the Interfuse community, I encourage you to think about becoming part of our team!
As an EC, you would work as part of a team of 6 (or maybe 5) in order to:Book vendors.Secure insurance for the event.Collect info for infobots.Communicate with department leaders to requisition needed materials before the event.Communicate with Shriners to make sure their needs and the needs of the event are considered.Assist the Volunteer Coordinator in filling lead positions.Help estimate expenses and assign funds from the budget.Determine and communicate ticketing dates.Be available for department leads to ask you for info and resources to do their jobs, and sometimes prompt them with reminders.Collect info from leads for the Afterburn Report, and send in the appropriate paperwork.Stay up to date on changes within the community and within leadership, and participate in important decisions.ANSWER YOUR EMAIL!
If you want to join our team and help keep Interfuse going, I encourage you to email the current ECs with your questions or your qualifications at: Interfuseecs@midwestburners.org
In addition to ECs, we are looking for department leads for some new departments in development. The new departments will focus on mobility, inclusion, media, and design. Please reach out to ECs at Interfuseecs@midwestburners.org if you are interested in this type of work!
Don’t want to lead yourself but have someone in mind? Nominate them!
