Volunteers
Needed and Appreciated!
Volunteers are what make our sale so wonderful
for all of our shoppers and consignors. Giving a little bit of your time
before or at the sale, will earn you some great rewards! Best of all, Volunteers get to shop FIRST! Since you all give us so much, we
have created a Volunteer Preview Party Night EXCLUSIVELY for you!! Only
Volunteers will shop on this night. This
very special privilege is well deserved. Thank you for all that you do!
There are 3 different entry times for volunteers on Presale Night. This is
determined by how you volunteer.
If you are able to work during the sale, you
have the opportunity of receiving a 5 p.m. entry ticket if you work 3 shifts, a
6 p.m. entry ticket if you work 2 shifts or volunteer to bring a meal or a 7
p.m. entry ticket if you work 1 shift.
All other volunteer opportunities
listed below will provide you with 1 or 2, 7 p.m. entry ticket(s) unless otherwise noted.

something to eat. We need meals that will be enough to serve 8 hungry
staff members during each day of the sale. Team up with a friend to
provide one of the following meals (each of you could make a meal for 4
people) and get

We
need posters and flyers distributed to area childcare centers.
These areas are predetermined. You will need to call the centers
that we identify for you and get permission to distribute and the number
of flyers and posters they will need. You will pick them up from us
and then take them to the locations in a timely manner. For every 10
locations that you distribute to, you will get 1,

IMPORTANT NOTICE:
In an effort to ensure the quality of the sale by retaining a sufficient number of volunteer workers, Belles and Beaus will require that workers fulfill their pledged obligation to work their assigned shift or successfully complete their duty given prior to the sale. In the event a worker does not fulfill their obligation or find a suitable replacement on their behalf, the worker will not be allowed to participate as a volunteer worker again or participate in any future Volunteer Preview Parties. Some extenuating circumstances will be considered (such as a death in the family). Please understand that these guidelines have been created in an effort to maintain a high quality sale. Workers must be on time and fulfill their entire shift in order to reap the benefits of the Volunteer Preview Party. Thank you for your help. You are what makes our sale so great! We really appreciate your
willingness to help and must be fair and consistent with all of our
workers. Thank you for giving so much to us!
Please contact us by email
if you do not hear from us within 24 hours of submitting your
information. Apparently, some forms will not reach us from time to
time. Thank you for your understanding!
