Having problems with message search?
All,
Peg Kase and I attended an informational meeting tonight at Harry Grove Stadium about the upcoming season. Several points were covered that I need to pass along to everyone so we can all be better prepared for this fundraiser. There is a new general manger this year. He will be taking a more critical look at the dress of the volunteer workers. Please make sure you adhere to the guidelines below.
1. There will be a General Orientation meeting at Harry Grove Stadium (probably upstairs in the Keys Cafe) in March (exact date/time TBD). The target audience is for our adults who will be in charge each game and for those new to the fundraiser. If you were a Shift Manager last year and will be participating in this fundraiser this year, please plan on attending.
2. There is the potential for some extra dates this season as Ovations is pulling other attractions into the stadium. There is the possibility of a couple of concerts this summer, so stay tuned for more details. There will be a WWE event and a Film Festival later in the summer.
3. General Volunteer Guidelines for this year. (More detailed information will be available after the General Orientation meeting)
a. Park in the lower parking lot and enter thru the doors at the 1st base end of the building - doors located next to the home clubhouse.
b. Arrive no later than 30 minutes prior to the gates opening. (NOT 30 minutes before game time.) Once the gates are open, volunteers will not be able to enter the park without purchasing a ticket.
c. Dress code is:
(1) No opened toed shoes or sandals
(2) Tan or black pants, shorts (to the knee), or skirts - NO JEANS!
(3) Hair must be tied back out of your face
(4) Please dress warmly in April
(Note: If you are not dressed properly, you will be sent home!!)
d. Complimentary pre-game meals ONLY served before gates open.
e. All stands are to be ready for operation and volunteers in place when the gates open.
f. Volunteers MUST sign in TWICE. You must sign our yellow sheet to account for the hours for your quota and the Ovations sheet to account for participation in the stand. By signing the Ovations sheet, you are acknowledging their insurance waiver. Look for the fluorescent red clipboard with the bright yellow sign-in sheets in the stand.
g. All volunteers must be at least 14 years of age. All cashiers MUST be 18 or older (ABSOLUTELY NO EXCEPTIONS).
h. Disregard the rain - come anyway. Games are seldom postponed early.
i. No one other than the volunteers working will be allowed in the stand.
4. Peg Kase is compiling a "call me" list of names and phone numbers for those who are interested in filling in if someone is unable to work their scheduled game(s). If you are interested, please let her know.
5. If you sign-up for a game and for some reason are then unable to work, YOU must find someone to work for you. If this happens, please contact Peg Kase so we know who is working.
6. REMEMBER, we are working all 70 games and other special events this year. Please make sure you make note of the dates you sign up for and be on time for your game.
Let's have fun this year!!!
Play Ball!! (It made me feel warmer to say that!)
