Like many volunteer-run organizations and conventions in your community, Anime Fusion is seriously short-staffed since the pandemic. It takes a lot of hands to make the convention run, and we need yours! Joining staff is a great way to meet new people, give back to your community, and still have plenty of time to enjoy the event (with a free badge!).
If you’re considering volunteering for Anime Fusion, we’d like to invite you to our staff picnic! There’s no obligation; just a chance to chat with the crew behind the scenes of your favorite October anime convention and learn a bit about what we do and how you might be able to help.
Hot dogs and burgers will be provided. Guests are invited to bring a side item to share. Please keep COVID safety in mind and try to choose individually-portioned items over shared open containers. We will be outdoors, so masks are not required, but social distancing is encouraged. Masks will be available for anyone who prefers to use them. Please do not attend if you have symptoms of any contagious illness.
The picnic will go on rain or shine. We have the picnic shelter reserved at Crosby Farm Park. You can find it on Google Maps as “2400 Crosby Farm Trail.” The entrance to the park is on Shepard Road just off of Highway 5; follow Crosby Farm Road down into the river valley and past the Watergate Marina. Look for the Anime Fusion banner.
We look forward to meeting you!
