PPCA Open Day 20th May 2018 – Volunteers Required

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

The Club intends to stage an ‘Open Day’ on Sunday 20th May, from 1100 hrs to approx. 1500 hrs, outside the Mount Batten Centre (MBC) as close to the coast path as we can get.

We are hoping this event serves many purposes, such as generally raising the profile of the club, encouraging passerby’s to sign up for the various courses that we run, perhaps to sign up and join the club & also to promote the MBC (the MBC reciprocate by encouraging people who pass their paddlesport courses to join the PPCA and they give out PPCA promotion material).

There will be no ‘wet’ activities at the event, it will be purely land based. The initial idea at this stage is to erect a gazebo or two, fly the clubs banner, lay out a selection of our boats, have on hand our club information and engage with people as the walk the coastal path.

We are now asking club members to expand our initial idea and if you have any ideas or suggestions about how we can make the most of this day these would be very welcome, you can either post your ideas on this thread or chat with any of the committee members.

Some things we are asking for now include volunteers to help on the day, you can come along for the whole period or for an hour or two. We also need a few tables and some display boards. I believe some members may have large size laminated photos used at previous events which would be useful. We could do with another gazebo, and anything else that you think would be useful for a PPCA Open Day (including perfect weather!)

But most of all we need volunteers to help out on the day (especially the younger members of the club!) and your ideas and suggestions.

Thank you

Tony
