Wanted: Team Members

The Critical Quilt Fair Committees are seeking team members. The tasks are not difficult, but having enough help keeps them stress-free and fun.

  1. Check Entries into the show (take-in). On Wednesday, October 15th, between 9:00 am and 11:00 am, we accept entries, tag them, and give the owners of the items receipts stapled to a slip of return instructions.
    Need desk workers and “runners.” Training will be provided. Sign up sheet at the front table.
  2. Return entries at the conclusion of the show (take-down). On Sunday, October 19th, at 4:00 pm.
    At 4:00pm on Sunday, the quilts are returned. The pins keeping the drapes in place are removed, then the quilts are removed from the frames and given to “catchers”, who take the quilts and fold them to hang back on the frame, with the ID tag showing.

Detailed instructions will be provided to volunteers (the signees) by the chair before the start of the job. Training practice can be arranged with the chair at any time before or after meetings. These jobs are not complicated – they just have a lot of steps.

Please don’t hesitate to talk with Jodi Greenfield (925) 980-5409 about joining one or both teams!
