After hosing the Back to School Social in August, I learned things immediately that I needed to do better this time. Each time is a learning experience that allows you to continue to improve and grow. Take those things that made you stumble and don’t view them as failures; view them as learning tools.
- I learned that I need to give more hype to the donors at the time of announcing the winners. I feel I could have done a better job at that time. (Lesson learned).
- I learned just how needed and appreciated the helpers were. I had no idea that I would need that much help. Thank God for special people.
- I learned that even when you think you have every detail planned, something will always go not as planned.
- I learned that tubs work out great when filled with ice for drinks.
I hope that these posts help you to get a better understanding of what kinds of things to take into consideration when planning an event. I hope that you also remember though that this is all just the notes from a rookie that as of this posting has only one event under her belt – working on #2. I will continue to learn and improve as will you when you get started!
Good luck and as always, you know where to find me.
