Title: 2020 Ultimate Fishing Show Detroit Volunteers Schedule
Post by: djkimmel on January 06, 2020, 05:28:33 PM
Below is the volunteer schedule for the 2020 Ultimate Fishing Show Detroit. Volunteers who work at least 2 hours will get a free exhibitor pass to the show that is good for the whole show. I can only give passes to persons who help at the booth so please stay at the booth and help out during your time(s)! I will need extra help on Saturday during the Ultimate Bass Clinic between 2pm and 5pm for the 2-hour seminar.

UPDATED 1/8/20 (2:25PM): Booth 3054 NOTE NEW BOOTH# - Please help me keep the schedule up-to-date. PM or Contact Me (http://glbass.com/contact) if you have a change or any questions.

We could use 2 helpers for ~30 minutes after the show ends Sunday for tearing down, and packing the booth and materials into my car. That would be awesome if you can help!?! All volunteers will be added for a year to the special GLBass Friends group if not already in there. And you will have my eternal thanks and appreciation!

BOOTH VOLUNTEERS SUMMARY
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 the websites - mostly GreatLakesBass.com and GreatLakesIceFishing.com, handing out stuff and just answering general questions about fishing. NO ALCOHOL in the booth. No sales or giveaways 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, family and stuff in the booth. Please NO extra people behind the table or blocking the table front who are not on the volunteer list. I expect a busy show so I am shooting for 2 to 3 people at the booth during the busiest prime times (including myself, mostly later Friday and most of the day Saturday)! The schedule can be adjusted some to accommodate people willing to help who can't fit one of the existing time slots. THANK YOU!!!!

Dan, you can put me down on Thursday from 5pm to 8pm and Friday from 6pm to 8pm. I will be there on Saturday so I can probably man the booth during the Ultimate Bass Clinic. And on Sunday as well.

I put you down for the above, generous 3 time periods. If you still feel like helping Sunday, you can do that. Didn't want to wear you out... I appreciate the help! Thanks!!

Well, I'll see you there I'm sure. If you want to hang out in the booth you are always welcome. Just don't want to obligate you unnecessarily until I know you're feeling well enough. You can be a booth volunteer 'consultant.' ;D If you want to be on the schedule for sure, just let me know... I can make that happen later tonight. Thanks and drive safe.

Sadly my private jet is in for a oil change so I am stuck in Florida.   Have fun all.   Post photos.

Okay. We'll give it a whirl when the time comes... they finally put me next to Wayne... First time in YEARS!?! I'm 3054 and he's 3051 in the 3000 aisle. I think there's something like 'kangaroo' hats or similar at the south end of aisle 3000.

I did see lots of tackle in the very brief trip I took around a few aisles. Several new names I'm not familiar with. Shocking news!! Saw the 2K Jigs booth not far from mine... should spice things up a bit. Poor ole dartag is going to be sweltering away in Florida wishing he was here!! Shoot! We still have open water all over the place! ;D
