-Possible sponsors, get these sorted out well in advance
-
-!!zcat's thoughts on structure;
-Primarily I'd like this
to run 'trade show' style. Various businesses are allocated table space and are responsible for their own display. Vendors pay a token amount per table
to help cover other costs. Vendors need to confirm with us what they'll
be putting
-
-* Greeters! We really need two or three people at the door
all day to welcome people
, hand out material..
+* Need
to schedule volunteer shifts so no one has
to be there
all day, maybe 1-2 hour shifts?
-* Talks on various topics throughout the day. Very popular last year. We need someone to be responsible for organizing, announcing and facilitating this (it's a fulltime job)
-(someone to organize/coordinate events room 1 barcamp)
+!! Volunteer responsibilities
-* hackfest -- tables
, power
, network
(Wired and wireless if possible
), several volunteers available through the whole day
.
+* Meet and greet people
, give out CDs/DVDs
, have a "elevator speech" or a short "this is what it's all about" script prepared. Don't let one person
(i.e. kid
) tie up a computer for a long time
.
!! Things to not forget
-* evaluation survey
+* evaluation survey (uh maybe for volunteers involved?)
* eventfinder, whatsonhamilton, happysheep
