Shorts and slacks are permitted. No sandals or open-toed shoes are allowed. Please do not wear heavy or intrusive jewelry (“intrusive” being anything that can potentially harm you or people around you).

The Tri-City Con volunteer shirt must be worn during all shifts the volunteer works. Tri-City Con cannot guarantee a shirt in your size. If Tri-City Con is out of shirts in the volunteer’s size, the volunteer must wear a shirt of a larger size. If all sizes are too small, the volunteer will not be furnished with a shirt.

While working as a volunteer, you are representing Tri-City Con . It is essential that you are kind, courteous, knowledgeable and professional at all times to ensure attendees and exhibitors enjoy the show.
