Title: Looking for Volunteers for the 2011 Grand Rapids Ultimate Sport Show Booth 1927
Post by: djkimmel on January 20, 2011, 06:45:11 PM
GreatLakesBass.com will be in booth 1927 for the March 17 - 20, 2011 Ultimate Sport Show at DeVos Place in Grand Rapids 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!).

See the schedule below for days and times and let me know if and when you can help out. There is free exhibitor 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.

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, March 17   3pm - 9:30pm
Friday, March 18     11am - 9:30pm
Saturday, March 19   10am - 9pm
Sunday, March 20     10am - 5pm


Here are the time slots available for volunteer help. I'll close them as someone volunteers. We can always use a little more help to cover breaks and no shows for various reasons. If you're willing to do multiple sessions, I'll do my best to get enough coverage to allow for breaks.

Not sure when spring break is. If it works out, we'll be there all 4 days, if not all weekend. Put us down for the weekend for now.

Okay. I hope to get a bunch of volunteers out of the great following GreatLakesBass.com now has on the west side of the state so just do what you can without too much stress and strain.

I'll check with the boss, but I could be there for a good chunk of time on Thursday.

If you have already volunteered, you will be able to see the private volunteers-only board for more information. Please check out the information for volunteers on that board as soon as you can. Thanks.

I usually get out of work early on Fri. and hit the show up early.  No reason I cant hang out for a few hours on Fri during the day. I'll let you know how long I can hang out. (I have to get a kitchen pass to stay past 3. I will apply for it this weekend :)) I would like to stay until 5.  I would also like to shop around for 30-40min though.  Just a heads up.  I'll let you know for sure.

Dan,

I'll be there Friday afternoon, Sat and Sun if you need some help.  As always I'll be in Wayne booth most of the time but I can help you if you need me to.  Let me know.

Hey... now we're getting somewhere. Thanks. I'll add you all to the badge list and update the times this evening or tomorrow evening. You should all be able to see the private show board now (child board of this one). I'll update that schedule the same - tonight or tomorrow night. Getting ready for NBAA Day at D&R Sports tomorrow.

Volunteer schedule updated. Sorry about the long delay. Any member who wants to help, still have a few openings and Jack is twisting my arm to do several seminars. I have the marked openings and can always use some break coverage. And that's if everyone who has already offered to help can do that times I'm asking. There may be a few other openings yet.
