Join Alliance LARP Colorado at FanExpo!
Volunteer with ACO at FanExpo 2024 from July 4-7!
Howdy, everyone!
Today, we have a very exciting announcement - Alliance LARP Colorado will be at Denver FanExpo 2024! This is an incredible chance to reach out to the greater Colorado nerd culture community and connect a TON of new people with our game.
We're super excited to make it happen, but none of this can happen without you! We are looking for a team of volunteers to help us set up/tear down, market, and staff the booth in full costume. With a hefty 10’ by 40’ space in the community zone that we are sharing with Dystopia Rising: Colorado, we will have ample room for activities, and a tremendous need for your smiling faces to come and make it all happen. From an all-day boffer ring, to guided roleplay activities, to possibly even panels, we are going big this year and want everyone to be a part of the team!
Interested in volunteering? We will be providing compensation for all attendees in the form of up to 30 Dragon Stamps per day, with additional GS rewards and more! A complimentary exhibitor badge will also be provided for the duration of your shift, with chances to explore the event floor throughout your time. We want everyone to have fun with it! If you can only attend a limited number of days, please prioritize Thursday and Friday as these will be the tougher days to staff up for with work and life schedules getting in the way.
So, what are you waiting for? Join our community for four exciting days of fandom, community, and excitement at Denver’s largest pop-culture event! Ready to join the fray? Fill out the linked form here: https://forms.gle/vRvy9AnbacUHgZ1k7
See you at FanExpo!

Join Us for the Camp Tumbleson Lake Workday for Community and Rewards!
Join us for the Camp Tumbleson Lake Workday for community and rewards!
Hello, everyone! We’re excited to announce a fun opportunity for the ACO community - On May 18th, 2024, YMCA of Northern Colorado in conjunction with Rotary Club is hosting a work day at YMCANOCO’s newest campsite, Camp Tumbleson Lake, just outside of Ward, Colorado. This is the site that we and other local LARPs are looking to use in 2024.
For all participants at the work day, we are excited to offer 120 Colorado Goblin Stamps - plus a Silver Scale, a powerful limited currency that will be used to create LCO magic item picks at our chapter going forward.
This will be a cleanup and preparation day with a variety of manual tasks needed, starting PROMPTLY at 9 am and going until 4 pm. Lunch will be provided. Dress for a mess, bring sunscreen, and show up on time!
This event may pose challenges or limitations for people who use mobility aids, given the nature of the work; we trust you to use your judgment on that
To sign up for this event, please register at the following link: https://epicdayofservice.org/vo-signup/?PID=1330
See you there!

Volunteer With Alliance LARP Colorado Today!
Alliance Colorado is now accepting applications for Volunteer Staff roles!
Hello again, Alliance Colorado Community; publicity here with another exciting announcement. We are officially accepting volunteers for our staff team, and along with it, we have launched a staff positions page on our website; an up-to-date listing of all open roles, plus an easy link to apply, can be found at https://www.alliancelarp.co/staff .
This inaugural batch of volunteer roles includes just the positions we have determined top priority to get our chapter smoothly running to our first event; so while these are very important positions, if you don’t see something you are interested in doing, don’t worry! There are a generous handful of less urgent roles to fill waiting in the wings. The current batch of positions includes Costuming & Design, Logistics, New Player Liaisons, Plot, and Social Media.
Each of these roles will remain open to applications until at least March 28; if you apply before then, you are guaranteed to have your application formally reviewed… but don’t worry! Most of these roles have two or three open slots, and may remain open longer. Simply put, if you can find a job listed on the application form, that means we are still hiring for it.
All ACO volunteer roles come with a regular ACO Goblin stamp compensation on either a monthly or per event basis; we don’t plan for rewards to stop there, though! As more volunteers join the team, we will be having discussions with everyone to learn what rewards drive and excite service. We are excited to see what we can build together!
It is also important to know that in line with Alliance LARP’s national policies, it is important to note that anyone who accepts a staff position with ACO will undergo a brief background check to verify they do not have a history of Sexual Assault related offenses. During this process, and the entirety of your potential tenure as a volunteer with ACO, our staff will take utmost care with the privacy of your private data to ensure there are no leaks, compromises or abuses. If you have any questions about how we do this, please reach out to customerservice@alliancelarp.co .
That’s all for today’s announcement; thank you for tuning in! Head over to the staff page now to have a look, and see what catches your eye! Alliance LARP Colorado is working hard to build a LARPing experience unlike any other, and we are simply thrilled at the idea of having you join our team to help us build the future of community, storytelling, and immersive action here in Colorado. Good luck!
