From the event coordinators who plan every detail to the volunteers who help bring it all together, meet the people who are the backbone of the conga experience.
The Event Coordinators: The Masters of Organization
Meet Emily, Maria, and Tom – our top event coordinators. These three individuals are responsible for planning and executing each conga event from start to finish. With their attention to detail and organizational skills, they ensure that every aspect of the event is covered, from logistics to entertainment.
Emily, with her calm and collected demeanor, has been with the Conga Crew for five years. She’s the mastermind behind many successful events, and her ability to think on her feet is unmatched. "It’s not just about planning a party," Emily says. "We’re creating an experience that people will remember for years to come."
Maria, on the other hand, brings a burst of energy and creativity to the team. With her background in marketing and event management, she knows how to create buzz around each conga event. "I love seeing the excitement build up as we get closer to the big day," Maria says.
Tom, our resident tech whiz, is responsible for ensuring that everything runs smoothly behind the scenes. He’s the one who sets up the sound and lighting systems, coordinates the DJ, and troubleshoots any technical issues that arise during the event. "It’s not just about being a ‘behind-the-scenes’ guy," Tom says with a chuckle. "I’m proud to be part of a team that makes magic happen."
The DJs: The Music Maestros
Next up are our talented DJs, who bring the beat and keep the party going all night long. Meet Juan, Samantha, and Alex – three music enthusiasts with a passion for spinning tracks that get people on their feet.

The Volunteers: The Unsung Heroes
Volunteers are the backbone of any event, and Conga is no exception. Meet Rachel, David, and Jessica – three dedicated individuals who give their time and energy to help make each conga event a success.
Rachel, our resident photographer, captures all the magic on camera. With her keen eye for composition and lighting, she ensures that every moment of the event is preserved in memory. "I love being able to relive the experience through my photos," Rachel says.
David, also known as "The Smooth Operator," brings his expertise in stage management to the table. With years of experience working with large events, he knows exactly how to handle even the most complex setup and teardown procedures. "It’s all about precision and attention to detail," David explains.
Jessica, our resident crafty queen, helps create an immersive atmosphere for each conga event. With her background in design and creativity, she crafts decorations, props, and other visual elements that transport attendees into a vibrant world of color and energy. "I love seeing people get lost in the experience we’ve created," Jessica says with a smile.
