Title: Looking for Volunteers for the 2011 Novi Outdoorama Booth 5715
Post by: djkimmel on January 19, 2011, 07:38:29 PM
GreatLakesBass.com will be in booth 5715 for the February 24 - 27, 2011 Outdoorama at the Suburban Collection Showplace (formerly Rock Financial Showplace) in Novi Michigan.

I'll need volunteers each day to help talk to others about GreatLakesBass.com, answer questions and just tell fishing stories (I know you ALL can do that!). I have a few of you already on the list from previous posts or conversations.

See the schedule below for days and times and let me know if and when you can help out. I will cover your parking and you will get an exhibitors badge to get into the show at no cost as long as you volunteer in the booth for two hours or more.

I expect to have some other outdoor websites done that will make this show of broader interest very helpful to the success GreatLakesBass.com.

Please post if you can help including days you can't help or hours you know you can't help. There will be a volunteers only message board again we can use to share necessary specifics - THANKS. Here are the show hours:

2011 Dates & Times
Thursday, February 24   2pm - 9:30pm
Friday, February 25     2pm - 9:30pm
Saturday, February 26   10am - 9pm
Sunday, February 27     10am - 5pm

Booth 5715 is a couple aisles in from the NE corner of the building this time near the shore lunch area just about kitty-corner from where we were at the UFS. Not sure yet, but we might be right next door to Wayne and Xtreme Bass Tackle. Floorplan (http://www.showspan.com/UserFiles/Documents/FloorPlans/11OUT_fp.pdf)

UAWBigDog - are you going to talk Got Fish?? into coming down to Outdoorama to help again? I would imagine he doesn't want to miss out on the turkey calling contest?!?

Alec and I are good for Thursday and Friday 5pm to close. Probably just me on Thursday. School night for Alec. Got Fish?? has his computer back up and running I think. Looks like FuzzyGrub1611 took care of it.

Hey Dan,
  Don't know what good I would be but if you need help I could drive up that way. I am busy Saturday morning but other than that any time would be fine. If I can help. You know my email....

By that I mean... any day any time other than Saturday morning.

Did not know you were hanging around here in the ole state of Michigan. Sent you a message. I'll put up a schedule tonight and you can come by any day. Guess I fell more than a little behind after deciding to squeeze in the Classic trip.

Smaller crew for this show. Shouldn't be super busy for us, but it is always nice to have enough help.
