Aplil fools - Volunteers needed!


can anyone help us out in any way with this event?
Would be nice if some one (or many people) could take leaflets to Arena Essex and give them out like someone did last time. Also if anyone on here goes on any other forums could they put the word around?
If anyone wants a poster let me know, Steve (Apache) will have some leaflets soon.
Also on the day, I doubt i'll be there so if anyone could help with directing cars etc. this would be good. Si and co did a good job last time so perhaps this time someone else could help.
Also any ideas to help make this event a success would be great.
Ta

Ive just got off the phone after speaking to Simon and as he has'nt access to a computer at the moment he asked me to ask for people to help at the B52 show.
What we need is;
2 people working the gate
At least 2 people parking the cars
and 2 people showing the public where to park their daily's.
Obviously you wont be stuck in the car park all day as you will only need to do a shift.

I've done this basic flyer image as its cheaper for steve to get it printed, so if any of you want to save this one and print it off it would be very helpful. Last time we had a show I kept some leaflets in my car so if i spotted a suitable vehice on my daily travels i could give them a leaflet.
Sorry its a bit basic but I'm a bit busy at the mo.

THE THING THAT CAUSED THE BIGGEST HEADACHE LAST SHOW WAS THE PARKING. 

WE NEED:

2 PEOPLE ON THE GATE

2 PEOPLE GUIDING CARS TO SPACES

2 LINING THEM UP

2 SENDING THE DAILIES TO PARK.

ALL ON SHIFTS SO ITS NOT WORK ALL DAY.


WHO CAN GET THE VESTS?

we have said that it starts at 11am so i think we need to be there around 9.30 to sort out who is doing what.

any high vis jacket will be a help. even if we dont use them all. better to have to many than not enough.

Hahahahaha @ cudley, park a car on me hahahahaha biggrinbiggrin
Fort tony was the roundabout.....
I agree, a sign on the island would be a good idea if one could be made up. I dont mind doin it if everyones happy with that? Is it a grass island we can shove poles into?
Also, can we not get any outside help like they have at manningtree? Scouts, cadets etc?
Just had another thought. I know someone with a bouncy castle business. Do i ask if theyll travel that far?

Charging opens a hue can of worms with insurance, health & safety etc, etc, which is why Mitch & Si had said 2 years ago when they first ran the gathering they wouldn't charge.
