--------------------

 

This year the Great TV Auction airs April 23-28, 2012 from 

            6 - 11 PM       Monday - Thursday 

            6 - Midnight  FRIDAY

            6 - Midnight  Saturday.

 

A little bit of background.  Company's pay big money to sponsor various
areas of the Auction, such as Pick-up & Pay, the Big Board, the Bid Takers
just to name a few.  They also provide as many of the 29 people needed for
the phones as they can.  As in past years I assist in recruiting people to
filling the vacate seats.

 

I know all the people that have helped in the past have had a GREAT time and
they feed you too. Not just Pizza either.

 

Another benefit is the volunteers are invited the week after the auction to
a Volunteer Appreciation Dinner where they feed you again and any unclaimed
merchandise is sold, at very good prices.

 

As of now  we only have a few shifts with openings:

                                                            Training
ON-AIR

Wednesday   4/25    2nd shift        7:45                8:30 till 11:00ish

Friday             4/27    1st shift          5:15                6:00 till
9:00 PM

Friday             4/27    2nd shift        8:15                9:00 till
Midnight

 

You only have to go through Training once this year regardless of the number
of shifts you volunteer for.

 

What to wear:  a club shirt, if you have one, or other non-statement shirt

What to take:  a sweater or light jacket (the studio can be hot, cold or
just right)

Parking: you can park in the Convention Center parking garage (directly
above the station). Channel 16 will validate your parking, or on the street
(free after 6 PM)

 

You will be fed and drinks (non-alcoholic) are provided.

 

PLEASE let me know ASAP if you are available (which night/shift)

 

And of course, if you have Family or Friends that would enjoy helping - just
let me know.

 

Thank you
