Seminar Assistants
What is a Seminar Assistant (SA)?
Serving as an SA is an honor in the tradition of AWAG. The red apron wearing SA’s are the “face” of AWAG. These volunteers are the hard working, ever present, smiling group of people that keep the seminar activities running smoothly and on schedule. Our Board of Governors (BOG) meet throughout the year to plan our annual seminar. The SA’s are responsible for executing these plans to pull the Annual Seminar together. Specifically the SA’s prepare the registration packets, make decorations, manage classrooms and introduce speakers, man the information desk and act as sales people for Ways and Means. They must be able to lift and move heavy objects, stand for extended periods of time and do a lot of walking. We have early mornings and late nights while building friendships. If selected as an SA, travel and lodging expenses are covered by AWAG Executive Board. Applications are due by March 2nd 2020.
When will I know if I am selected?
Our goal is to review all applications and make a final selection by March 16th 2020. We will be selecting 6 individuals to fill the required SA positions.
ALTERNATES: We will also select a small amount of alternate SA’s to fill the position in the event an individual is unable to attend Annual Seminar due to unforeseen reasons (ie: illness, PCS, etc.).
What do I wear?
White blouse/collared shirt (must have sleeves), NAVY blue slacks (denim is not allowed), solid white, navy or black shoes (plain white, navy or black tennis shoes are acceptable). To ensure uniformity, no other combination may be worn. In addition, AWAG provides each conference assistant with a RED apron for use during the conference. These are presented to each SA during an induction ceremony dinner.
When do I arrive?
Our 64th Annual Seminar dates are May 17th – May 21st 2020 at Edelweiss Lodge and Resort in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. As an SA you will be required to arrive on Saturday, May 16th, 2020 no later than 1400. SA’s will check-out and depart on Thursday, May 21st 2020.
