Dear PAA Student member,
The PAA is looking for twelve PAA student members to volunteer for the PAA conference 2015.
You will help with a range of tasks such as as setting up rooms for workshops/workouts, setting up and moving apparatus and equipment as required, checking attendance registers, introducing presenters, showing presenters or delegates to presentation areas, setting up audio visual requirements and any such tasks needed in the successful running of a conference.
As a volunteer, during your free time you will have the opportunity to attend workshops and presentations without charge. The tasks will be shared to ensure that each volunteer will have time to participate.
We can only select people who are able to commit to the full 5 days as outlined below.
The conference will be held at the Australian Technology Park Conference Centre, Bay 4, Locomotive Workshop, Henderson Road, Eveleigh NSW 2015. The PAA does not meet travel costs for volunteers.

Participation in complimentary sessions is at your own risk. There will be a cost to you of $100 for catering for the three days of the main conference. A cafeteria is available for the pre-conference days.
