We're curious about how other dance organizers handle the task of sitting at the door
and taking money.
Who does it?
- organizers?
For our contra dance in Jamaica Plain: organizers do set up
including setup of sound, dance management, announcements, and cleanup at the dance
- volunteers?
volunteers who are also dancers
- a mix?
- nobody?
For our English Country Dance in Jamaica Plain we have a donation
bucket.
- how many people at a time?
one - we are a
small dance
How is it done?
- scheduling people to do the task (how?)
email request to our mailing list and
know volunteers for volunteers, organizer does assignment
- vetting/soliciting the vols (any parameters?)
- how long does each person sit at door on a given dance eve?
usually get two 45
minutes each - and after the break it payment s ad-hoc
- any compensation/barter?
free admission to
the dance
