Kidsignments
New Helper Registration
Spring 2008
----------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your interest in helping at Kidsignments!
Volunteering at this event is hard work but the benefits of helping are very rewarding!
----------------------------------------------------------------


Helpers get to shop before the seller's preview sale since normally,
all helpers have to work the preview sale (and this is a marathon day).
First time helpers normally get excused from working the preview sale. 
All helpers however must work one of the three available cleanup shifts.
Note that these shifts can be very, very long depending on how much inventory is left : )

Besides being able to shop the special helper's preview sale,
there are many other great benefits offered to our wonderful volunteers.

All helpers get to shop a 1/2 price preview event.

Helpers may also purchase items during their cleanup shift
with a further reduction of the consignment fee (price less 30%).

YES - All helpers can sell! 
YES - my husband is a chef and does prepare complimentary food for us during the sale shifts!
YES - I provide at my expense -snacks and drinks for helpers!
YES - we have the annual "After Easter" potluck picnic and egghunt for helper's family!
YES - it is a lot of work, but worth it!
NO - sorry, no children are permitted during volunteer shifts.
Long time helpers really look forward to seeing the other helpers twice a year. 
Some great friendships have been made at this event!

T-Shirts
We have to order T-shirts in advance. Please fill out this information so we can
make sure to have enough new shirts for new helpers.


Do you need a Kidsignments T-shirt?

If you are selected to help this time, what size T-shirt do you need? 

                                           How many T-shirts do you need? 

The first shirt is paid for by me, additional shirts cost about $4.50
(I only pass on my actual charge so whatever that is will be the charge)

 

Helper Meeting

All new helpers will need to attend a mandatory helper meeting. It is very important for all helpers to hear the same information at the same time.
Normally, this meeting is on the helper drop off day, but since this is Valentine's Day, I am moving it to the following day.

The helper meeting is on: 
        Friday, Feb 15th   6 pm - 8pm

Helper Drop Offs:
       Thursday, Feb 14th   8 pm - 10 pm 

(If you are bringing many items, please come early and not close to 10pm)

Number of Shifts Worked at Last Sale

Number of Shifts Would like to help this sale New helpers are requested to help 3-4 shifts.

Number of Shifts Remaining from Last Sale*

Sale Shifts Desired (Check all the ones you would like from the drop down listed)
All helpers are required to help at ONE cleanup shift.  New helpers are asked to sign up for the last cleanup time.

Please select more than the number of shifts that you are requesting to enable us more flexibility in meeting your requests.
Please select at least 3 shifts total.

CLEANUP SHIFTS - Please select 1 of the four shifts below (new helpers are asked to work
the last shift that is premarked for you)

Working one of these 4  is required.  Note that these shifts end when all the work for that phase of sorting is complete.
If you leave before the end, it is likely that you will not be asked back to help again since this places your share of the
work on everyone else. Since cleanup and preview are essential for everyone to help to make sure it is fair for all, if you do
not help at one of these shifts, then you need to select two shifts (after sale shifts do not count) to substitute for each of these
(if you do not do both cleanup and preview, this would mean you would need to select 4 shifts to substitute, but they count as 2).
Anyone who cannot work cleanup will not be able to have their schedules confirmed until a few days before the sale. This is
because this shift is critical and we will be filling shifts with those who are able to help out at cleanup first.

I am interested in helping additional shifts if needed.

Enter any additional  comments in the space provided below
but please, please, please
do not hit your carriage return/enter key

or this will come across really strange on my side. When you get
to the end of the line just keep typing, don't hit return.


You didn't hit return when you typed, right?? : )
Do you know any Kidsignments helpers?        
If yes, who?                                                    

Do you have any consignment sale experience

What did you do at this sale if you answered yes above? 
(Please enter any prior experience in the space provided below
but please, please, please
do not hit your carriage return/enter key

We will contact you as soon as we know that we have an opening for the times you are available.  We often do
not know this until right before the event.  We will email or call you if an opening becomes available.   

Once your confirmation information is provided, we (and your fellow hellpers) count on you to fulfill your commitment.
A "no show" creates a hardship on everyone participating in this event and we really count on you to keep your schedule.
Please make sure to have a backup plan in case something happens such as daycare arrangements, someone to fill in
if you are sick (they must be adults and not your children please unless your children are adults : ) or other situations
that could occur. 

We greatly appreciate you interest in helping at Kidsignments! Thank you so much for filling out all the information so
if you are selected, you do not have to return to complete this information for this event! 

Gwinnett County Parents - check your school calendar! Half days on 2/13 and 2/14
and NO SCHOOL (Snow Day) on 2/18)...Hmmm....nice of them to give teachers
off to shop the helper and preview sale that day!
