[ARCHIVE] Greeter

As the greeter, you are responsible for greeting community members as they arrive at the event so they feel welcomed and comfortable.

Greeter Checklist

• Welcome community members as they come through the door

  • Stand by the door towards the beginning of the event

  • As the event goes on, try to notice new people that arrive and introduce yourself

• Have name tags and Sharpies ready by the door for people to put on as they enter (the organizer will provide these). Name tags make the event more accessible to newer people, and help create an environment of belonging even for those who don’t know anyone

  • Ask people to fill them out & put them on as they enter

• Give extra time and attention to people who are new to the community to help them feel welcome and comfortable

  • If this is their first campaign social event, spend some extra time connecting with them

  • Introduce them to another community member you think they might connect with

• Be vigilant throughout the event: if you see any attendees who are alone or having a hard time connecting with others, talk to them and introduce them to others

• Remind people to take photos at the event! Kick things off by taking a few yourself
