Sign-Up parties can be as simple or elaborate as you want them to be. From a simple play date or picnic in the park to a 5-course dinner, a sign-up party just needs to be any event that brings together the SPSL community for a good time.
When you agree to host a Sign-Up Party, here's what you can expect:
The Sign-Up Party committee will reach out to you to gather party details.
We will publish your party in the fundraiser materials and on the website.
Promote your party! Talk to others at SPSL about the party you will be hosting and encourage them to buy a spot at the party during the Fall Fundraiser. (Purchasing a spot at the parties ONLY happens at the fundraiser.)
Attend the Fundraiser event if you can and continue to promote your party and buy spots at other parties. These parties are a great time!! Spots at the sign-up parties are sold ONLY the night of the fundraiser.
After the fundraiser, a member of the Sign-Up Party committee will send you a list of the guests who purchased spots at your party, along with the guests contact information.
Contact your guests as soon as possible to thank them for purchasing your party and provide general date details (if the dates/times are not all worked out yet, that's okay. Just give them an acknowledgement of the purchase and let them know you'll be in touch again.
Finally, host your party and have a great time! I usually follow up after the party again to say thanks for attending.
