[Deptheads] We need more volunteers

I agree with Victor.  People volunteer for different reasons but the 
hardest ones to get are the ones who work the 'desks'.  I think adding a 
t-shirt for the 16 hour level works.  We could also do a raffle for a 
free badge next con.  I think anything that awards "best volunteer" or 
some other subjective criteria will cause a lot of grumbling and is 
something that can be abused.

I volunteered at these cons going back to the early '80s.  Originally I 
did it to save the $30 (I think) admission fee.  After doing it for a 
few years, I got burned out and found it was more enjoyable to just buy 
a badge and have no responsibilities other than to play games.

So my thought is a raffle or a set number of  (48?) hours will get you a 
free con badge.
