Small town community dance.  Used to have nobody collect money just leave a box
at the door.  Never had a problem.  We hold the dance in a Grange building, and the Grange
now "sponsors" the dance.  We now have various non-dancing Grange members, 
volunteers, and friends sit at the door to provide a friendly greeting.  It's not a club, so the
organizers are too few in numbers (two or three!) to do "the greeting thing".

P.S.   We have converted some non-dancing volunteers to dancers.  :-)

Subject: [Organizers] Taking admission

We're curious about how other dance organizers handle the task of sitting at the door and taking money.


Who does it?

- organizers?

- volunteers?

- a mix?

- nobody?

- how many people at a time?

How is it done?
- scheduling people to do the task (how?)

- vetting/soliciting the vols (any parameters?)

- how long does each person sit at door on a given dance eve?

- any compensation/barter?


Other relevant info?

Thanks,
