Online I’m GimmieSunshine, but most people call me Carrie or Caroline. I live in the suburbs between Philadelphia, PA and Wilmington, DE. I spend most of my time working full time as an RN. I love baking cookies and used to make them in very large quantities at holiday time to give as gifts (when I had more time and little money). I cut back over time and then stopped almost completely because I’m trying not to eat them all! I’ve substituted crocheting as an alternate creative outlet, but I miss baking. Doing it for a good cause would be even better!
I was introduced to the Cookie Brigade at PAX Unplugged last year (I don’t think I noticed anyone in 2017). I’m hoping to contribute by baking a lot (and possibly distributing too) for Unplugged 2019.
Introduce Yourself
Hi All! I’m Ashley and I literally just found out about the Cookie Brigade a couple hours ago! I am a stay at home mom and baking is a huge hobby for me and I love to volunteer my time so this is a perfect way for me to do so . This is my first time going to PAX unplugged and I assume I’ve missed the ability to donate my time / baked goods this year but I plan to go full force next year and I’ll have my 1 year old with me too 
How do I get in contact with someone to get involved? I saw on the FAQ if you do X amount of work we can be reimbursed for our badge but didn’t see anywhere that explained how many hours / what work you had to do ? I can’t wait to see everyone and help out !
Hi, I’m Chuck and I was looking to help out at the upcoming PAX Unplugged event next week. I’m not much of a baker, otherwise whatever I can do to help.
Hey Chuck, welcome, we can always use people willing to help us out with distribution and fundraising at PAX so we’re happy to have you onboard!
I’m Jesse, a data analytics nerd from St Paul MN. I’ve played assistant to Brigadier bakers a few times over the past couple years. I also volunteered at the Child’s Play booth at PAX South 2019 and will be there again at Unplugged this week. If there’s any help I can provide other than distribution, I’d be delighted to do so.
Welcome, Jesse! We always have a ton of work to do behind the scenes, so we appreciate any and all help you can provide. Thank you for joining us!
Hi I am Monica
I try to volunteer every year with making cookies and distributing ! I’m hoping to help out Friday! Because it’s the only day I can go this year. I was wondering if meeting someone Thursday because I plan to line up early for pins at the beach booth. Would like to give out cookies while in queue. 
Good luck to another awesome year!
Hi @AsianCandie welcome back! I’ve added you to the group for PAX South. Make sure you join our discord, https://discord.gg/HBwUcfs, and ask for access to the PAX South section so they can get you set up to help.
Hi! I’m Sara. I’ve been going to pax for 6 years- East, west, and Unplugged (though U is newer lol)
I’m a pax Pokémon gym leader so I’ll be chilling in handheld a lot and would love to distribute while I’m sitting and taking challengers since I’ll be in one spot.
I am also legally blind and this website is a nightmare to navigate but here I am
Welcome, Sara! I’ve sent you a link to our Discord channel and updated your group permissions. We’re in the process of updating our website so hopefully it should be easier.
Hi everyone, my name is Kyle.
I’m a long time PAX East goer, I think almost 9 years now. I’m an ex Omeganaut from last year (We got knocked out in Surgeon Simulator) and had no idea that the Cookie Brigade has become such a big thing for PAX. I always love to chat with the volunteers and eat the amazing baked goods! I used to do charity streams for Child’s Play and other charities, and while I know that it’s pretty last minute, I wanted to know if I could be a distributor for the cookie brigade at East this year?
Welcome, Kyle!! So happy to have you join us - we have multiple Omeganauts amongst our ranks and we’d love your help! I’m going to message you our Discord link.
Awesome! I just joined the discord
Wassup, names PJ, First time volunteering for the cookie brigade. I love what you guys do, a real wholesome cause and experience. So i wanted to see what i can do to help. Looking to be a distributer at PAX East.
Welcome, PJ! I updated your account so you now have access to the PAX East channel and info. Please read over the information and I’ll be available on Discord to answer any questions. We’d love to have your help for East!
Hi everyone! My name is Melody and I’m from NJ. I’ve been going to PAX East since 2011 and have attended several PAX Unplugged. I love the excitement people get when they are hungry, sitting in line and they see a Cookie Brigade person! I am looking into details of volunteering with you this year.
Heya! I’m Donald, long time Pax West goer and Cookie Brigade supporter (since 2010), I’m happy to be here, and I’m considering helping out in the future, so here’s to hanging out and helping a good cause with edible chemistry
Never been to PAX, but live around Boston, own a bunch of tools and the knowledge of how to use them. Can build (or fix) almost anything. Willing to volunteer time and tools or just know how.
