While the positions may be different, every member of the convention holds an equally important role. Without the unsung heroes of the convention circuit, the events many of us enjoy every year simply wouldn't exist. "If you're a convention attendee, remember that the staff are all volunteers," explains Luther, "we're all doing the best that we can, but we usually have a complex set of plates spinning on sticks on every hand and are concentrating on 50 different things at once." However, these individuals are all performing their duties as a labor of love. "We're fortunate to have the opportunity to organize such an unique event, but it's ultimately successful because of fans like you," quips Peregrina. And, while we may not all say it at once, or at all, just as many fans appreciate the stress, the work, and the outright craziness that these individuals endure to deliver the greatest entertainment experience they can.
