This is a great opportunity for parent or guardian volunteers to be part of the action while helping preserve the magic of the exhibit. Join us in making this a fantastic experience for all!

First Timer's Table

We've all been there—that exciting (and maybe a little nerve-wracking) first time at a convention! Join us at the First Timers' Table to give newcomers a warm welcome, answer their questions, and help them feel right at home. With your friendly guidance, they'll be ready to dive into the fun and make the most of their experience. Let’s make their first convention one to remember!
