Maximizing Your $50 Fair Booth Reimbursement

[DebPC]

How many times a year do you use your $50 fair booth reimbursement?I use mine about 4-5.

I wish I used mine that much. I am getting ready to send it my first one. I just never remember to do it.

I try to use mine every month. I'm in charge of the PC booth at a local Farmers Market and I staff it with lots of different people. What I have done is to build up an email list with consultants and, especially, other local directors. When I come across something, I send out the email and get people for the event. Right now I am doing a Job Fair and I just got an email about another Farmers Market and a Holiday Boutique....don't know who referred me to them, but I'll take it!

Sending it in is a different thing....since I do staff booths with other directors, it is a good motivation to stay on top of it!

I would like your opinion on my son Tristan. Should I get retakes on his school picture. Thanks for the advice!!!

In my honest opinion, he's a cute kid, but needs to work on that smile

But don't stress it, he's got many more school photo opportunities in the future. If you want a photo to frame goto a private photographer.

Oh waht a cutie!!! It just looks like he was maybe a little nervous. If retakes are free or very inexpensive why not go for it.

I think the pic looks good for a school pic. You usually don't see one that is that wonderful or at least not around here, ha!

I think it is cute!

 

[StacieB]

Well I decided to leave it. They do spring pictures around here as well. It is not like his eyes are closed, so we decided to keep it. Thanks for the replys!!

I like the picture. He'll remember to smile next time. At least he's wearing a nice shirt. I didn't realize it was picture day for my younger son, 10 years old. He wor a T-shirt with words on it. Yuck, and I bought them. I think I may go for re-takes. We haven't gotten them back yet.

I did the same thing! DS (11) wore jsut a regular old shirt and didn't put gel in his hair. Not that he looked "bad" but definately NOT school picture day quality! They are the ones that go in the yearbook but I didn't buy them since I forgot and you have to order when they take them!

I personally wouldn't do the retakes - I have some doozie of pictures when I was a kid - but as my mom always says - that's what you looked like. My two sons have taken to smiling with no teeth showing (no matter how much I try) - yet it's the age and they are still cute and how they were at the time. My daughter acts like a model and very much poses herself so I knew she'd have a big toothy grin. If they had their eyes shut or hair looked crazy then I'd consider retakes - just my opinion!

I'm sending in my first booth reimbursement form. I thought I read somewhere that I could fax it in. If so, does anyone know the number? I have the form, the original contract I signed and my cancelled check. That's all I need to send, right?

I found the form in the Director Policy section of the downloads, but they aren't very specific about how to actually submit it.

I use mine as often as I can. I've done it for April, August, and November this year.
