COMMITTEES | Venue/Logistics

 

This Committee Holds the Responsibility for the Site.

Work with the Event Chair & Staff to find an appropriate venue. 

Liaise with the site principal; create overall appearance of event; rent chairs, tables, carpet, china, glassware, linens.

Coordinate with Fashion Show Committee on rental of risers, tent(s), lights and sound systems.

Coordinate with Volunteer Committee for set-up and breakdown.

Coordinates and manages breakdown and garbage disposal; works with chairs on budget.

You may want to elect a Decor Coordinator who will act as a go between with the Auction, Fashion Show and Marketplace Committees and oversee the decor for the event. The Event Chair & Staff will probably oversee this person and have final say on decor choices, but every event hierarchy is different. Review the Decor Basics.

Before you dive into the tasks for your committee, be sure to read the Venue Great Ideas & Lessons Learned. After over 150 events we learned from our mistakes and are passing along the wisdom to you.
