Exhibitor Resources

Thanks for registering for the Volunteer Fair. The following resources are to help you get the most out of the event and support fellow exhibitors. This page will be updated as we send out emails leading up to the event.

Be on the lookout for a series of 4 emails from us:

Marketing the Fair

The more people hear about the Fair, the more will come. Increased attendance means more potential volunteers for everyone.

There are 3 easy things you can do to help spread the word.

Facebook Event

RSVP-ing and sharing our event is a great way to increase the visibility on Facebook. If allowed, share with appropriate local groups too.

Prepping for the Volunteer Fair

This section covers 3 main areas:

What is provided

We’ll provide an 8ft table and 3 chairs.

If you indicated that you need electricity, your booth location will be near an outlet along a wall.

Setup time will be from Noon to 3:30pm on April 4th.

At 3:30pm please gather in front of the stage for brief opening remarks followed by time to network with each other before we open to the public.

What to Bring

  • Tablecloth
  • Standup Banner and/or items about your organization. They must fit within the 8ft square space of your booth area.
  • Handouts to give potential volunteers
  • Signup sheet.
  • pen/pencil/notepad
  • tape

If you signed up for electricity

  • extension cord
  • duct tape and/or cord channel to secure the cord to the floor

 

Please note, we are not allowing pop up tents this year.

What to Say

Always start with a smile. 😊

Be clear about what it is your organization does – and who it benefits. People connect with and remember stories about you transform lives and the world around us.

Be clear about what it is you need. We understand not everyone has this luxury, but it’s usually easier to get someone to commit to doing a specific task than it is to do something undefined.

Have the people who are staffing the booth practice the intro to the organization and make sure they are familiar with the volunteer tasks.

What Not to Say

Please refrain from political and religious conversations at the Volunteer Fair
