With just days left until the 1st DYT - Indy event, there are a few things I have learned:
* I haven't discovered a way to e-mail individual attendees. I need to ask - in the event listing - for guests to include their e-mail addy in their reservation.
* Be prepared for anything, number-wise. I was not quite ready for the response (76 diners) we got. My initial reservation was for 20. lol
* There are some GREAT online sites for coloring book pages! Those and some dollar store crayons will be found in my "kiddy packs" on Thursday.
* Cafe Press can be your best friend if you are looking for less expensive favors (though not needed).
* To allow guests many ways to donate and still have an idea of what you are raising, make simple anonymous donation pledge cards available and ask your guests to leave them in a gift bag.
* Print off voter registration forms for each guest. Ask them to pass it on if they are already registered.
* Do not assume a slow start just because your state is usually redder than a stop sign. I am AMAZED!
I am REALLY excited to meet everyone on Thursday!
