Discussion about what identifier to use

TS Tathra Street Public Seen by 13

When people arrive at a social, how will they know who the Welcomers are? Let's throw some ideas around and come to a decision.

We talked a fair bit about a Bee theme. I like the idea of a Bee plush toy on the table, or held in the arms of a Welcomer and perhaps a Bee brooch or button of some description that can easily be worn, passed on to other welcomers etc.

Perhaps we can store our identifier at the venue so we don't have to bring it each time

I like that idea @benhogan, tho let's decide what it is first! :)

I found this after the meeting the other night, thought it was quite appropriate, and not budget-breaking (especially if shared, kept at the venue, etc):

It so is! That would do me. How many do we think we need? 4?

Are we ready to decide or do we want to invite more discussion?

My question about that bee is - how does one attach it to one's person? I wouldn't want something that had to be carried around all evening.

The Welcomer role doesn't go the whole night. I think it was one or two hours we decided at the meeting. Is that right @benhogan ?

Hmm. I would be concerned that if one (say) has a drink in one hand and is greeting people with the other, the bee could get put down and misplaced fairly easily. I would opt for something attachable, personally.
