Hey All,

Same, I didn't plan on extending my stay in Boston to Wednesday. Any word on if the day will be changed?
Volunteer Perks:
FREE admission and a guaranteed spot on a team at the crawl. (Suggested donation for attendees is $10 this year.)
Choose your team and get some friends to volunteer with you! You could have 3 people volunteer for the same team!
Yes you can still drink and participate in the challenges! As long as you can make it to all the bars.
Volunteer Responsibilities:
Show up for the crawl 30 minutes early to meet with your professor.
At the first bar, help people sign in and get their instructions and team buttons, and help sell swag to raise money for Child's Play.
Help herd cats! At the appropriate time, make sure that the whole team knows we are moving on to the next bar and no one gets left behind!
Keep an eye out for your teammates, if anyone drinks too much help make sure they get a glass of water, get help from their friends, or get an Uber home.
That's basically it! 90% of your responsibilities are completed at the first bar, then enjoy yourself and catch em all!
If you want to get more involved, please let us know and we will invite you to our Slack workspace for the planning team. This group is planning the routes, contacting the bars, making or buying extra items to sell or auction to crawl attendees, etc. We are still looking for a couple Professors to lead teams as well.
I might be interested - my buddy and I were planning on attending anyways. I'll find out from him prior to committing tho
We had a blast last year; so definitely going
I have volunteered for this as a Nurse Joy for the past 3 years and did not get any information about it this year. I usually sign up through my cousin but she is not attending this year. I would love to help again.
Awesome! I'll pm everyone with more info. Sorry things are a bit chaotic, some of the head organizers aren't going to make it this year but thanks to all our new volunteers for helping the crawl live on!
(sorry caps, but i am excite)
(If a day hasn't been decided. My boyfriend and I will be in town Wed....but again; I need more details before I can commit
"dual battle against the other team; find a friend on your team, pair up with two on the other team, by the opposing team a drink the same color as their favorite 'mon"
Here's last year's info for a general reference as to what the crawl is: https://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/209732/pokecrawl-go/p1
The day also has been set as Thursday, according to an earlier post in this thread.
FYI, I have been PMing everyone interested in volunteering with more detailed info. We are still looking for about 6 more volunteers and are hoping to finalize the volunteer list by the end of the week. Thanks again to everyone helping make the Pokecrawl possible!!
I'll PM those interested with more info. We ask that volunteers arrive at the first bar at 7pm and the crawl officially starts at 7:30. We switch bars every hour and go to a total of 5 bars (so moving to the last bar at 11:30pm). We prefer volunteers say the whole time but it's not required. If you can make it to at least 4 that's probably good enough XD It's important for volunteers to arrive around 7 though, most of the help we need is checking people in when they arrive, after that it's mainly helping to make sure the whole group knows when we are moving to the next bar!
I wouldn’t want to go to pax knowing a crawl wasn’t held because we didn’t have enough people to do the work, so please PM me and I’ll help out any way I can!
Details incoming
