DANCE
-
Attend all Spring Fling Committee meetings.
-
Contact talent agency to inquire about bands and DJ's. This should be done by
late summer to ensure band availability. It is up to you who to use.
-
Attend different band performances to get a
feel for their style of music, and determine if they will be suitable for the
dance. Also, attend various dances in town to find a DJ who you believe will
be good for Friday Night.
-
Once you have decided who you wish to hire, have contracts drawn up and bring
them before the Committee.
- The
budget is approximately $3,250. This includes paying for bands or DJ’s for
Friday and Saturday dances and purchasing stamps and stamp pads. The stamps
should be passed on for next year. There are four stamps and eight pads to be
used. Two stamps and stamp pads of one color for Friday night, and four stamps
and pads of another color for Saturday night.
-
Your committee should consist of approximately 25 people. You will be given
dance committee ribbons to give the committee members.
- You
can coordinate with Information to ask people to leave the rooms after the
respective speaker meetings. Information Committee members, hotel staff,
recovery homes, volunteer help with cleaning the hall to make ready for the
dance.
-
Have Information watch the stages to make sure no one goes on them.
-
The bands will set up anywhere from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Make sure you know when
they will be setting up so that you can make sure the stages are ready for
them.

money and tickets. Tear tickets in half. Have two people to stamp hands once
money or tickets have been taken. Have one person standing in the middle of
the entry way for crowd control.
