This is what we learned from Geek Fair 2006.
(See also Geek Fair 2005 Debrief)
General
- Big ticket items should be paid for an extra day in advance in case anything goes wrong. ($1750 for tents broke our debit card limt and caused too much scurrying around at the last minute.)
- Better communication about where to point volunteers that show up late and ask staff members what they're supposed to do.
Silent Auction
- Remember to announce widely before closing off auction
Raffle
- Start selling tickets earlier. We could have made more money.
- Announce the drawing. Clarify if it's "must be present to win" or not.
Food
- There should be soda available for those that don't drink beer. There was juice, but people requested soda.
- Maybe print volunteer tickets like "Beer * Beer * Food" in a strip, rather than three separate tickets.
