More Volunteer Options
If you do not have 4 hours to give but would like to shop the Thursday night private presale, you can earn a presale pass by helping with the following (NOTE: these will not qualify consignors for the 5% bonus to their commission):
Meals for Volunteers = 4pm presale pass
We will gladly accept a home cooked or take-out meal for volunteers during the public sale. We ask that you bring enough to feed 15 people, one main dish and one side or dessert. TKC will supply utensils, plates and beverages.
Place TKC Magnets on your Vehicle = 4pm presale pass
Place 2 magnets on your vehicle 3-4 weeks before the sale until the last day of the sale. Please only volunteer for this position if you are frequently driving your vehicle to and from kids activities or places where they will be seen. Magnets must be returned after the sale!! Consignors Only!
Sign Display = 4:30pm presale pass
Do you live on or have access to a property located on a busy street? If
you would be willing to post a sign visible to passersby, you can earn an
early shopping pass. We ask that you pick up and return the sign at the
end of the sale. Not all locations will qualify, please contact us with
your available location(s).
Please email us for details or to sign up for the above positions. amanda@thekidsclothesline.com
Please note: Shifts are available on a first come first serve basis. One volunteer pass is earned per 4 hour shift or non sale position. A volunteer pass entitles one person admittance to the pre sale. You may bring children under 13 without a pass. You MUST have a pass for entrance. If you have lost your pass replacement passes are available for a $25 fee.
We immensely appreciate all those who offer their time...thank you in advance! We know attending the private Presale is well worth the effort!! If you volunteer for any position we are counting on you to follow through. In the event you do not fulfill your commitment, or find a comparable replacement, you will not be allowed to participate as a volunteer in the future. Please understand that these guidelines have been put in to place to maintain a high quality sale
Do you have a special talent or access to other resources that
can help the sale? Here are some examples.
-
Newspaper, TV or Radio Coverage – Do you know someone “in the industry”? If so, recruit them to help publicize the sale or offer us “friend & family” advertising rates and receive a volunteer shift in exchange.
-
Restaurant or Catering – Own a restaurant or catering business or know someone who does? Earn a shift when you help us to feed our hungry volunteers.
-
Have another idea? Can you offer something else to help make the sale successful? Contact us with your idea and let’s see what we can work out!
