8-10 days BG

  • Final order submission date (~10 days prior to game; but will pick-up order forms for the next day or two. For all orders received thereafter, call and give guidance on how to purchase tickets independently for $1 more at the Redwings box office)

1 week BG

As I collect ticket orders, I enter them on an Excel spreadsheet; which will be saved as one of the committee forms. Now it’s crunch time:

  • Sort orders in worksheet by grade/teacher, and make note of special seating requests
  • Assign seats (this is the tedious part)
  • If not done already, prepare & print ticket wraps (suggest red paper)
  • Prepare envelope labels (include “Redwings Tickets”, student name,
  • grade, teacher, & ticket quantity).
  • Stuff envelopes & rubber band bundles by teacher
  • Deliver to school office for distribution

Week of Game

Scribner morning announcement drawing event:

  • One student draws winning name for ceremonial 1st pitch
  • Arrange in advance with Anne Ferris & Geoffrey Fitch
  • Supply them with a simple Redwings theme container with names of
  • all Scribner students listed on the order forms

NOTES

  • Red Wings coordinator will advise on ticket payment due date! The Red Wings require payment in full on one check.
  • Once all orders are collected, organize and submit the payments to PTA treasurer with “request for funds” form, and she will provide a check for total payment to Redwings. Also return any unused tickets.

Game Day

  • Suggest arrive early to greet families, see that band students find their meeting place, and take some pre-game photos. Red Wings will also permit you to go onto field to take pre-game photos of band, 1s t pitch, etc.
