How can a dance organizer solicit help?

• ASK! Make a signup list. Take down emails
• Play up the need!
• Announcements: "we need help taking down stuff tonight, so please stick around after" - it's easier to get someone to do something NOW than get them to remember to email you about it tomorrow
• Offer free admission for volunteers
• If you are on a college campus, learn to play the administrator game and make friends in the Student Activities Office.
• It's easier to help if the needed tasks are specifically enumerated/listed/known
• It's nice to have rotating/co-organizers so everyone has a chance to play and work.
• Organizers "run" the dance - not the CALLER!
