Natl. History Bee & Bowl Nationals Staffing Thread

Post by Great Bustard »

The National History Bee and Bowl is interested in looking for staffers for our second National Championships on April 27-29 in Washington, DC and Northern Virginia. As per the original Nationals post, if you are interested in helping to staff the NHBB Nationals, please email director at historybowl dot com. We will try to honor reading requests as much as we can (i.e. whether you would prefer to read at an embassy, museum, mansion, etc.). Staff members are given a complimentary polo shirt and staff gift. They also have the opportunity to play in the Staff Bee late on Friday night. We can reimburse travel expenses on a case by case basis (probably up to about $150 per person, but this depends on our needs), and also help you find people to carpool with if applicable. Accommodations for staff are provided on Friday and Saturday night, along with a $15 food allowance and thousands of homemade chocolate chip cookies (that's for everyone, not per person. sorry.) Note that if you directed an NHBB tournament for us during the year, we will reimburse your travel costs in full no matter where you are traveling from and would be particularly delighted to have you join us.

The point of this thread is to show that we are on top of staffing needs months in advance of Nationals in order to handle a field that will likely come close to or possibly surpass 200 teams. I will update this thread as people get in touch with me. Note that Nationals registration itself will open the first week of January 2012.

Site Outreach: Will Mantell, Joan Mulcahy, Raynell Cooper

Nick Clusserath is now handling NHBB staffing. He'll post periodic updates here. We've already had quite a bit of staff interest, which should allow us to have a great trained staff to cover 150+ teams this year. That said, keep letting us know if you're interested in coming. Also, coaches can now read and get a discount for doing so. See the Nationals Registration page on historybowl.com for more details.
