SKollmann Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 The ISA will have a booth at the 'Rosemont' sport show. http://www.americasoutdoorshow.com/ Wed,1/27 2 PM - 9:30 PM ______ Ed LaRocca Dick G Thur,1/28 2 PM - 9:30 PM Eugene C Steve K (2 PM - 4:30 PM) Stan Z Fri, 1/29 2 PM - 9:30 PM Gordon(til 5or6) Steve K (2 PM - 9:30 PM) Tim U Sat,1/30 10 AM - 8 PM (2 shifts 10-3, 3-8) 10-3 Ted P Mike C , 3-8 ______ ______ Sun,1/31 10 AM - 6 PM Don R Dick G Mike C Please respond below if you are able to help out. Let's fill in those blanks! A minimum of two ISA volunteers should be at the booth on each shift. Three volunteers for each shift is ideal. This gives each member a chance to take a break or to see the show. Many thanks in advance for all volunteer work done for the ISA. Thanks to Eugene and Stan for volunteering to work the ISA booth on Thursday evening. With two other members already manning the booth, I will withdraw working on Thursday, but will work from 2 pm to 9:30 pm on Friday (with a couple breaks).

Mike Clifford Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Lose my badge or forget to return it, and I'll hunt you down. But seriously, none of our volunteers should be paying for admission if there are badges available. Simply look at the schedule and take note of a name that isn't there that day. Grab one that is available.....it's OK! I'm working on getting extras and will post here when I can get them printed on their end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 Ed told me he would. Not sure if he follows the forum. Our conversation was via phone. More help on Weds. would be GREATLY appreciated. Can anyone help us out here? Call me on my cell if there are any concerns while at the show, or offers of help Weds or Thurs- 773-771-9042 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sponsored by: Chicago Mini-Bus Travel Just take the Blue Line to Rosemont and we'll do the rest or drive to Rosemont CTA Station (Parking is $5.00 for 1-14 hours) Chicago Mini-Bus Travel will have shuttle service from the Blue Line Rosemont Station (5801 N.

SKollmann Posted January 27, 2010 Report Share Posted January 27, 2010 By each 'shift' I was implying a half day's volunteering at the booth. Meaning a 4 hour shift. The days above weren't split into two shifts (with the exception of Saturday) and perhaps they should have been. Never expected anyone to have to work a whole day at the booth. Due to the lack of volunteers it looks as though some members will be working a full day (meaning 7.5-8 hours!) Our booth at this show gave us a very short amount of time to gather volunteers. We appreciate all of you stepping up to help out! Stan is working the last 4 hours of Thursday's show. We still need you Steve! Even with three working on Thursday that leaves at least one of you having to work the whole 7.5 hour shift. So if someone is out there thinking we have plenty of help...please consider helping out for a 4 hour shift of your choosing! Work the booth for 4 hours...get your parking paid. And if there isn't a booth badge at vendor check-in the ISA will pay for your admission as well. Anyone working Wed-Fri can use Mike Clifford's badge. Just please make sure to always turn in your badges to the vendor check-in when done with your shift! Noted . . . that said, I will plan to work from 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm on Thursday and all day on Friday. That would leave Eugene working solo for just one hour until Stan arrives at 5:30 pm.

WILLIAM C. Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Question?

Scott Ferguson Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 Thanks for the offer Bill, Mike Clifford is going to bring the booth back to me on Sunday. We will be using a different set-up for the Tinley Show. I was planning on doing the set up for that show but you can help me if you are free that Friday evening before the Tinley show.

SKollmann Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 List updated and thanks again to all! . . . and my thanks to you, Don, undoubtedly shared by the ISA membership, for a "Star Quality" job you exemplified in lining up volunteers for the 5-day show. Not an easy task for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Kast Posted January 28, 2010 Report Share Posted January 28, 2010 New badge update. You can't turn in the badges at the end of your shift. If you are working our booth, go up to the desk at the entrance and give them your name, they will print you a new badge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimU Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 Can I please have a phone number or two for people that may be able to answer any questions that arise during my shift at the show this evening? I assume everything is pretty basic, but you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim J Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 You can call me at 630-723-1883 cell Leave a message if I don;t pick up and I'll try and call you back. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted January 29, 2010 Report Share Posted January 29, 2010 I'll be there all weekend (staying over in a local hotel to cut in half the 300 total miles of driving), so if anyone has questions or concerns, feel free to get my attention. Will be doing time in the booth for multiple shifts both days, then wrapping up at the end and meeting Scott on the way home with all the "stuff".

Mike Clifford Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 We can use an extra hand or 2 on Saturday and Sunday if anyone that is reading has considered coming out to help support their club. As an added BONUS for ISA members, I've sweetened the deal for those stopping by the booth to Renew their Membership or Purchase a Blowout Ticket at the show on Saturday or Sunday. Check your Constant Contact Email reminder for details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKollmann Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 After working 7-1/2 hours at the ISA booth today, I inadvertantly left my wooden stool at the booth when leaving for home this evening. Chalk it up to weariness . . . not to age please! I understand that Ted P, Mike C, Tim N and Don R are working the booth on Saturday . . . and Mike C, Don R and Dick G on Sunday. I would greatly appreciate my fellow ISA colleague who lives the nearest to Northbrook bringing my stool home and shooting me a PM of your home address where I can retrieve it. It's quite light in weight, so should be no problem carrying. Thank you . . . most appreciative! Will also be posting a separate topic in hopes my request is seen before the show.

Scott Ferguson Posted January 30, 2010 Report Share Posted January 30, 2010 Tim, if we have a working email address for you on file, Mike Clifford periodically sends out a mass email to all our members to remind them of upcoming events. If you aren't getting them, like I said, either we don't have an email address for you or your mail spam / virus filters might be blocking them.

SKollmann Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Any update on the status of my wooden stool?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Ferguson Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I want to give a special thanks to Mike Clifford for all the work he did getting us a booth, working the casting, getting workers in, and spending 2 full days (and one night) at the show. I know there were others involved, and I don't want to have any of them feel slighted but without Mike, we could not have pulled this off at all. Thanks Mike. Also a big thank you to Don Rego, Dick Gronlund, Ed LaRocca, Eugene Collins, Steve Kollman (who may or may not get his stool back! ), Stan Zarnowiecki, Gordon Patriarca, Tim Urbanowicz, Ted Peterson, Tim Negronida, and Bill Chase who all donated their time in the booth. Thank you very much!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much!! On an equally serious note . . . did any ISA member who worked the Rosemont show on Saturday or today pick up my wooden stool and take it home?!? I certainly hope so. Please advise. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
