School Carnival & Festival Sign Up Sheets
Carnivals and festivals are some of the largest fundraisers that support schools, churches and nonprofits. Their size and profitability, however, means they require LOTS of hand-on support from volunteers and coordinators.
From staffing games and booths, to selling tickets, finding sponsors, selling concessions, setting up and inevitably cleaning up, the sheer volunteer participation can leave any organizer overwhelmed.
Stress less and save yourself and volunteers time by coordinating your carnival sign ups online! Fast, easy and convenient, free online sign up sheets from SignUp.com are THE answer for getting more parents and volunteers involved, increasing turnout, profits and FUN!
How do I organize a carnival with SignUp.com?
We have two quick solutions for you:
Schedule an entire day's event needs on one calendar, from set up to clean up. Generalize shifts for staffing booths/games by planning on letting parents know where they can help when they arrive for their shift.
The second solution is to set up separate activities for each large carnival need, i.e an activity for ticket sales, for each game, for concessions and so on. Our "duplicate activity" feature lets you set up one schedule for say, the Duck Pond booth, and then copy and rename it to set up shifts for say, the Baseball Throw Game. Find out more about this solution with sample sign up sheets and step-by-step instructions HERE.
