We have received many calls and emails from Santas and Mrs. Claus wishing to volunteer and assist at the Convention.  It is a known fact that the success of a good convention depends on the Committees, Chairpersons, and the many team workers that handle all the little details.

We will have over 100 volunteers who will be working on everything from registration, to Parade coordination, to the general sessions and workshops.  

And volunteers should be rewarded for their work.  So, there will be stipends and special credits given to those who are working.  General Volunteers will receive a minimum stipend for giving us a few hours of their time to work on an event or handle a special task.  

Depending on how many hours and events a volunteer works, that amount could go higher.  

Chairpersons are also needed to be the Coordinators and Directors of select Convention Committees.  These Committee Chairpersons and any Co-Chairs will also receive compensation in the form of stipends, complimentary registration, lodging or a combination of one or more of these areas.

If you are interested in volunteering, or have some experience that would benefit the convention, please visit the web site and click on the link for Committees.  

Fill out our form and we will have someone follow up with you.  Please give us a little time to do that.  If there is a special area you wish to volunteer for, you may let us know that too.  And if you have experience in a special area that might qualify you to be a chairperson or that might benefit the convention, please let us know in the comments section.

Yes, you can break your registration cost down, into payments that fit your cash flow.  Taunya at Branson Ticket and Travel is ready to help anyone register for DS2016 and to set up a payment plan that will their individual budget.  

This seems to be very important for many seniors on fixed incomes.  Many don't have a cash surplus set aside for events or vacations.  Taunya can help anyone make monthly or quarterly registration payments and in that way, help them to attend the convention next year.

You can also request reduced packages if your spouse will not be attending most events.  In this case you can purchase tickets to just those events she wants to attend. 

Just visit the web site, fill out the registration form and include a note telling us what you wish to do.  We already have quite a few doing this
