Title: Outdoorama Novi 2012 Volunteers Signup
Post by: djkimmel on January 21, 2012, 08:13:29 PM
UPDATED 02/20/12 (2:30PM): Booth 5715 - This is the volunteer need schedule for the 2012 Outdoorama in Novi. Volunteers who work at least 2 hours will get a free exhibitor pass to the show that is good for the whole show as long as you make your shift.

You will get more details in the private volunteers area of the forum. You will be able to see it once I add you to the temporary show group. I will state a few things now. I need people who can talk to others in an outgoing, friendly fashion about joining my websites, handing out stuff and just answering general questions about fishing. NO ALCOHOL in the booth. No sales of items not pre-approved by me before the show. This is only a 10x10 booth so there's not a lot of room for extra friends and family to come and hang out in for any length of time. Please limit the extra people behind the table. Mike Smith is managing the booth for this show since I will only be there Thursday. He and Veronica will be there a lot, but will need breaks.

I have to leave real early Friday so I will only be there part of the day Thursday. mikesmiph / Mike Smith will be the goto guy for any changes or official booth stuff. He will also be tearing down on Sunday at 5pm so if 1 or 2 of you can help, that would be awesome! All volunteers will be added to the special GLBass Friends group if not already in there. And you will have my eternal thanks and appreciation!

Can't do this show - I'll be in Florida throwing shrimp off the dock and trying to figure out what kind of fish I just caught.

That's kind of a fun game. I just watched someone catch a remora the other day on TV on bait. I had no idea what it was at first since I've never seen one not attached to a fish. I didn't know they got as big as this one was - over 3 feet long! Fought hard. We are very lucky to live in the Great Lakes, but the oceans are even more wild and exotic!

I could really use a few more volunteers for this show please? I'm going to miss the final 3 days myself - second shot at Rio Negro Redemption if Delta Airlines can figure out how to fly someone from Michigan to Florida in one day.

If I could get him up early enough, I would have him follow me and record everything so people believe it all!! I've got the earliest flight in the day this time. Fingers are crossed. And it won't be Friday the 13th!

The helper list is looking rather slim. Come on guys, I'm gonna need more help than this please.
Title: Re: Outdoorama Novi 2012 Volunteers Signup
Post by: djkimmel on February 04, 2012, 02:01:49 PM
Yup! Mike needs the help since I'm having to leave him for 3 1/2 days of the show to take one more shot at the Amazon (if I can make it this time?!?). Please help an angler out!

Maybe I can get Joe Thomas to swing by the booth and say hi?

Rick - I always get confused on the times between the two Novi shows. The Outdoorama show doesn't open until 2pm on Friday so I have you down from 2pm until 4:30pm. Thanks.

Thank you so much to every who volunteered in the booth! It meant a lot to me so I could enjoy my one big trip of the year in peace - something we all know is 'critically' important to us anglers forced to work for a living ;D

I appreciate everyone who visited the booth and any new members who chose to sign up too! Thank you!
