Pick up Frames and Set-Up the show - 8 am at storage and until quilts are
hanging.
Need three trucks and six or 8 people at storage and twelve - fifteen
more people at the school for bringing frames into building and setting
them up. You will be loading the frames into the trucks, driving them
to the school, unloading them at the door. Once you are at the school,
there will be people to help carry them to the gym and cafeteria and set
them up. You won’t need to go to the gym that day. You may also be
asked to assist a vendor if they need help, most don’t. Hanging
the quilts is one of the best parts of the show. Volunteer to hang
them, and you get to be among the first to see them. Renee Aken is
the leader.

White Glove
Wear white gloves and help with security during the show. You will walk
around and offer to show people the back of quilts and ask them not to
touch the quilts. One person may be assigned to take treats to vendors
or to watch a booth so that vendor may have a quick break. |
Raffle Quilt and Information Table
We
will have the Omaha Quilters’ Guild raffle quilt and the Nebraska State
Quilt Guild raffle quilt in the entry so that visitors may have the
opportunity to purchase a ticket. We will also have an information
table with information about membership in the guild, and other quilting
events in the area.

Demo Area
Judie Zinn will be in charge of this area.
At the demo area we will need to have several people demonstrating
different quilting skills. This would be a chance to work on one of
your projects and then chat with people who are interested and want to
know more about what you are doing.

Admission Table and
Hostess

about two gyms of quilts and vendors. Hostess not at admission table,
but standing near the doors as people enter the building.

Show Take Down -
Quilt Check Out
Sunday June 3, 2007, 4 pm - 6:30 pm
Taking down the show and frames takes much less time then setting it up.
Quilt check out involves helping to take down the quilts from the
frames and folding them on the tables so they can be checked out after
all of the frames have left the building and are loaded on the trucks.
Four people will be at tables taking registration papers and checking
quilts off on a master list as quilts leave the area. Six or 8 people
will need to get quilts and give them to owners when they have checked
their quilt out.
