It’s on. Since I originally placed up the first post, it’s been about 8 weeks. In that time, I have been busy getting the event built and also tending to normal stuff, like my real job! Having said that (to use a Curb Your Enthusiasm line), below are the links that will be helpful to get things now officially rolling:
FALLTACULAR FAQ: I finally created a go-to source, an FAQ, so that everyone can get on the same page concerning items like what the heck is Falltacular about, where is it held, how much is the donation, food…all of it. Of course, if you recognize something I may have missed, send me a PM and I will edit the document. http://members.cox.net/falltacular2010/2010%20Falltacular%20FAQ.doc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
EVENT TRACKER: an Excel file so you can see who is confirmed for attendance–both wineries and yourselves, along with the Volunteer Schedule, as we get that rolling going forward. I will also use this file to keep a running list of which wines have been committed, too. I have not yet officially nailed down the specific wines but that will be taking shape in December. As of now, we have TRB’s Outpost and Rivers-Marie wines listed. http://members.cox.net/falltacular2010/2010%20Falltacular%20Information.xls" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
SILENT AUCTION DONOR FORM: We are gladly accepting items for the silent auction but there is a process for it. I need for youze to complete the form and either send the item direct to Laura’s House or work through me to coordinate getting the item to them if that is easier for you. It’s noted on the form in this link: http://members.cox.net/falltacular2010/2010%20Falltacular%20Silent%20Auction%20Donor%20Form.doc" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
VOLUNTEERS: No link for this piece will be created but I do need for you to re-up with me and email or PM me if you wish to help out. When you contact me, I will then build you into the actual schedule. This will require that you tell me your preference for when you wish to help: set-up, event itself, or break down. Keep in mind that we start setting up around 1030, we then need hourly volunteers from Noon through 7PM, and the we break down at 8PM.
MAIL YOUR EVENT DONATION NOW: Will be $65 again this year. In order to handle this aspect, you will need to open the FAQ above, retrieve the address, follow the attendance limit requirement and mail your check. I’ll hold spots for the first 70 people and then I will adjust to any potential additional donations and attendance once the 70 are fully confirmed.
I assume there will a pile of questions and open items for us to resolve. You have several options to track me down: my email address @ drfm3@cox.net, PM or simply post below in the thread.
