We sit down with Jennifer Mehrstedt, the volunteer co-coordinator for Adepticon 2015, and her husband Chris to discuss the process of volunteering including, how can you help, what can be done to help, what you get in return for helping? So take a moment and listen, and we hope that you will be willing to join the Adepticon 2015 volunteer family.
