Event Prep:
Silent auction prep – event week lead-up. Will need
help preparing all the silent auction items for transport, and making sure we
have the right signs ready for each. AHA office – hours are 8:30am-5:00pm
Truck loading – at our office, Wednesday, Feb. 25, in
the afternoon, time TBD. Volunteers needed for some lifting to help us get the
truck loaded with all the event items.
Setup – Day prior: (TIME TBD, evening) We will
only have limited access to the venue, so we will need volunteers to help us
unload the truck, assemble giveaways and stage the silent auction items so that
when we arrive on Thursday morning there won’t be too much to do.

Thank you calls and handwritten cards:
volunteers are needed to make calls thanking our donors, as well as writing
cards (wording will be provided) thanking them. Preferably done from the
office, but at the convenience of volunteer schedules.
Evening prior: (evening, TBD) - assembling bags, boxes, silent auction items, OYH giveaway. A lot of little things that we can't set up until we get to the event space, so helping hands will be much appreciated!
Morning of: (6am-9:30am) Setting out gifts at all
500+ table settings, setting up the silent auction, ensuring booth space is
ready for vendors, getting signage into place, and of course setting up the
registration area. If you were thinking to yourself that you wanted to help,
but didn’t want to take off work, this would be perfect – hoping to have 10-20
volunteers to do this. We will provide snacks to all who come!
Directional: (9:30am-12:30pm) Several stations
assigned between entrance and the ballroom to make sure that attendees find the
event easily. (10-15 needed - currently fully staffed)
Registration: (9:30am-1:00pm) Duties include –
assisting with greeting guests and checking them in, and getting their contact
information. Each attendee will be given a pre-assigned bidder number and
table, and will be encouraged to pre-swipe their credit card, making silent
auction bidding and donating during the program a more streamlined process.
Note: we are using a new computer-based registration system for the first time
this year, so if you are assigned this station, you’ll need to watch an intro
video before arriving at the event. (16 needed)
Silent Auction Greeters/Runners: (9:30am-2:00pm)
Mingle throughout the silent auction area and encourage people to bid and
outbid one another for all items. Be able to talk about the items and what each
package consists of, and assist in basic smartphone techniques for the mobile
bidding. After guests go into the luncheon portion of the program, help with
staging items for checkout at the end of the luncheon. If table running is
needed, this team will assist.
Note: Unlike previous events, we will need about six
volunteers who are comfortable with technology and talking to guests to carry
tablets connected to the internet to assist guests with mobile bidding who have
not brought their own mobile devices. Volunteers can bring their own tablets,
or we have a few that we will be able to loan. Any volunteer machines will
only be connected to the web portal for bidding purposes and will not be used
for customer data or payment entry. (10+ total needed, including six mobile
assistants)
Table Hosts & Special Appeal:
(12:00pm-2:00pm)This involves greeting our guests as they come from the silent
auction and helping them find their proper table to be seated. You will each
have a map of the room to help with this. Additionally, the special appeal
portion of the program is where we ask people to donate to our cause. You will
help to collect donations and bring them to registration for processing, as
well as handing out the gift for those who do donate. This is a very fun part
of the event! (15-20 needed)
Other Volunteer Details:
Dress code:
-
Set-up and clean-up crews are casual/comfortable. Sneakers highly recommended.
- Event shift is dressy (skirt or slacks for women, collar and
a tie for men, jacket optional) – be sure to wear RED if you can! Flats are
recommended.
- Volunteers may not consume alcohol.
- Volunteers will be working during the program and not seated at a table.
- We will do our best to get as many volunteers as possible into the luncheon room for the Special Appeal portion to hear the survivor speaker.
- Lunch and snacks will be provided in the
volunteer area.
Volunteer Training: We will not be doing any advance
training, although we will be sending out details close to the event with
information on the mobile bidding system. Please, unless you’ve confirmed
otherwise with me, arrive at the registration desk no later than 9:30am so that
we can get you trained on your station before the start of the event.
Thank you again for your willingness to participate in our
event to make it a success! If you have any questions about the event, please
feel free to reach out to amy.herringshaw@heart.org or call 702-789-4370.
PS – If you are interested in volunteering at our
next major event, Heart Ball, on Saturday, April 23rd at Four
Seasons, we will need approximately the same help (times shifted for an evening
event), so if you’re interested please let Amy know, and we’ll be happy to put
you on the list! Also, don’t forget to save Saturday, November 5, 2016 for
Heart Walk! It’s a great event to volunteer at, and a fun family event to
attend!
