See our post on the GAF Potato Day.
GAF are looking for volunteers. Preference is given to those who have volunteered before. Please let Jan know by phone/text 0778 093 7278 or e-mail jan.lynne2303@gmail.com if you can help in any of the following ways:
Setting-Up 9am – 11.30am
The Reidvale Centre will be open at 9am. Stay for as long as you are able. There’s a lot of lugging about of potatoes and other heavy things – so strong fit folk will be in demand. Also, help with general setting up and putting up notices, etc for the not-so-physical.
Manning Stalls and helping Customers 10.30am – 3.15pm, for as long as you are able
You do not need to know a lot about potatoes but it helps! Most important is a willingness to help people negotiate the potato day process of choosing and buying, where to pay, where the loos are, etc.
Manning the front desk 10.20am-3.15pm, for as long as you are able
Greeting folk and giving general information about the day and how it works, any other questions about GAF, etc. Needs two folk at a time throughout the day. Warm clothing required!
Cafe – any time 9am – 4pm
Everyone’s favouirite stall! We require folk to help serve tea/coffee and cake plus some chatty folk to act as hosts, asking customers to complete a questionnaire and generally welcome them to our GAF event.
Donation of Home-Baking, Jams, Chutneys, etc
ALL DONATIONS VERY WELCOME. Please take directly, as early as possible on the day, to the cafe.
Please label what the item is and mark clearly if it contains NUTS.
Clearing up 3-4.30pm
We are due to be out of the building at 4pm.
GAF is proud of its reputation for leaving the venue clean and tidy with minimal work for the janitors. Again, strong fit folk will be in demand.
Lastly, if anyone is a Certified First Aider, please let me know.
