2014 Meet Info - Updates & Volunteers Needed!
« on: May 20, 2014, 03:45:52 PM »
Gregg and I need help getting this meet together.  Ok, mostly Gregg...I can only do so much from Des Moines.

Eventbrite site is almost ready, Blast email will be going out shortly.  Costs should not go up over last year.  Please keep in mind that the campground began to charge 'per person' last year.  There is a charge for Adults, older Kids are cheaper, and 6 & Under is free.

The campground has asked that RV sites be reserved through them as they're already very short on RV space.  It does sound like we'll have about the same space we did last year for tents.

We are not planning on a community/potluck meal at this time. 

Here's what we need for volunteers:

Greeters:
  Thursday
  Friday
  Saturday

Thursday Pizza Night Organizer

Friday or Saturday Night Movie

Dottie and I can do Saturday night supper. Brats, kosher Hot Dogs, vegi-dogs on request, Baked beans (my special Tonka Jim and some stock vegi-beans) and chips. We have done this for over 300 people without a problem. Talk it over let me know if there is extra money after expenses, or if we need to charge a couple bucks a plate. If Sean wants to do corn again that would be great. Decide and let me know.

Jerry - We won't be including a meal in this years registration fee, nor planning it.  If you want to take that on as your own contribution, and charge/accept a free will offering, that would be great, but it is totally up to you.

Make a list of things that need to be covered. I'm sure you'll get enough help.
Maybe a spreadsheet with things that need to be done and things that are covered and by whom? That can then be posted and shared.

I think that most of the bases are covered, but Gregg & Jim will need help monitoring & collecting fees from the day trippers as they role in.

I got the Email from Eventbrite.......if we are just coming down Saturday morning for a couple hours what tickets are we supposed to buy?  No boat or anything, we would just be stopping to say hi and see the boats.

No ticket needed!  The Campground (not us) has fees for using their facilities (obviously)...but, if you're just coming down, to hang out for the day, no boat, no fee.

I think we should be good.  I've talked to most of the folks who volunteered. 

Pizza order takers is covered for Thursday night, then its just Meet & Greet, Money on Friday & Sat. AM.

But...since everyone's going to register via EventBrite, there shouldn't be too much $$ to handle.
