1)  Share your work at SLCC – Submit a Proposal!

If you have an idea for a panel, performance or workshop that you would like
to present at the convention, please submit a
proposal<http://www.slconvention.org/convention-details/submit-a-proposal/>online.
 Don’t feel like doing a full presentation? No problem!  Speed
Sparks allow you to share the essence of your good idea with 20 slides in 5
minutes for lightning rounds of quick info sharing.   Be sure to submit your
proposal <http://www.slconvention.org/convention-details/submit-a-proposal/>online
and give us as much detail as possible.
*Proposals are due by July 15th*, and will be reviewed in the order they are
received.
2)  Join the team – Volunteer!

The convention is a completely volunteer run and managed event and we
welcome anyone interested in helping out on the ground in Boston.  For just
a few hours of your time, you can help make sure SLCC is a great event by
helping with registration, assisting with A/V and tech support, or other
logistical needs of the convention.  In appreciation for your help,
Volunteers are treated to a welcoming pizza party before the convention
begins and get to take home a special SLCC10 volunteer t-shirt!   Join the
team by becoming a Volunteer in
Boston<http://www.slconvention.org/volunteers/volunteer-for-boston/>
!

Can’t come to SLCC in person?  We still need help building the SLCC 2010
venue in-world, and we’ll need moderators, greeters, and other folks to help
out with the streams, so Volunteer
In-World<http://www.slconvention.org/volunteers/volunteer-for-in-world-slcc/>too!
3)  Be a host – plan an Evening Social!

There will be evening breaks built into the schedule all three nights
(Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) to give everyone time to have dinner and
relax before the next activity.  It’s a perfect opportunity to network and
meet other Second Life residents, or just plain have fun with people who
share your interests.   Organize a dinner outing, a Birds-of-a-Feather meet
up, or other social event at the Social Events &
Mixers<http://www.slconvention.org/convention-details/social-events-mixers/>page!
4)  Support the convention – Sponsor SLCC!

Get your name, institution, or business out to the Second Life
community!  Sponsorship
packages <http://www.slconvention.org/sponsors/call-for-sponsors/> begin at
$25 USD and go up to $5000 USD, with benefits including free convention
passes, logos included on the Tshirt and bags, logos on convention signage,
display tables, logos on the website and in-world kiosk, and much
more!  Sponsor
SLCC today <http://www.slconvention.org/sponsors/call-for-sponsors/>!
5)  Spread the word – Give a friend a discount!

As you can imagine, it is not easy getting the word out about SLCC when
you’re on a tight budget and can’t spend lots of money on expensive
advertising. But we do have one great resource: All of you!

Help us promote this year’s convention through word of mouth; tell your
friends about the convention and let others know how excited you are to be
going to SLCC10.  You can also send your friends this special discount code
to get 10% off of the regular convention registration price –
http://bit.ly/SLCC-friend – and feel free to blog it, tweet it, plurk it, or
send to your in-world groups!

Find web based resources like logos and graphics on our
website<http://www.slconvention.org/about-2/signs-widgets-social-media/>and
be sure to tag your online communications with SLCC10 whenever you can
and link back to http://slconvention.org.  You can also pick up a Promo Pack
in world that has posters, kiosks, banners, city benches, and other
decorative items that you can put on your land in Second Life.  We know that
many Residents don’t necessarily read the blogs, and we hope you’ll help us
spread the word in-world too.  Pick up a Promo Pack at:  *
