HOW SIGN UPS HELP ORGANIZE THANKSGIVING EVENTS

Posted by Ally Patterson





Thanksgiving is a time to gather with loved ones and take time to appreciate all
of our blessings - typically with a good meal as a plus! It can take a lot of
time and effort to organize your holiday events. After all, you're busy managing
details such as where to meet, what everyone should bring, and how to
communicate with guests. 

Online sign ups are perfect for: 

 * Organizing a food drive 
 * Recruiting volunteers to serve Thanksgiving meals 
 * Coordinating dishes between friends and family 

Online sign ups can take the pressure off the organizer so everyone can enjoy
the festivities - no matter how you choose to celebrate the season. See how you
can create a plan and execute it with the help of a sign up. Trust us - you'll
be extra thankful for these Thanksgiving event tips this year! 


CREATE A PLAN 

Before you get started, you'll need to decide the type of event you are
planning.  Are you hosting a Friendsgiving, bringing family together for a meal
or having a party? Maybe you want to plan a service project or organize a food
drive. Regardless, you'll need to plan out your needs and how people can
participate. 



Start by creating a sign up that reflects your event. You can customize the
layout of your sign up or  browse design options to choose a Thanksgiving theme.
Enter slots for specific food dishes or require the comment field on the sign up
so that people can list their specific dish for others to see.  



Hosting a food drive or volunteer event? Be sure to list out your needed items
as slots. This is a great way to ensure you have an even distribution of
supplies. 




SPREAD THE WORD 

Once you've created your sign up, it's time to request help for your upcoming
event or simply invite others to RSVP. A sign up makes it easy for people to
respond and prevents miscommunication regarding dish assignments.  



Spread the word about your event to ensure you have a good turnout - you'll get
the food items you need and have plenty of help. You can promote your sign up in
many ways. You can email the sign ups to your family, but if you're looking for
volunteers to serve meals or hosting a food drive, you might want to consider
sharing the link on social platforms or in a newsletter. 


FOLLOW UP 

Once everyone has heard about your Thanksgiving gathering, it's important to
follow up with sign up participants. With our premium plans, you can keep your
volunteers or attendees informed by sending out customized reminders and
messages crafted by you. These notifications can include helpful information
about your gathering, like including a map link to make sure everyone knows
where to go and how to get there. After all, even friends might not remember
where you live. 


CONNECT WITH CONVERSATION 

Once it's time for your group to come together, make sure you have a plan to
give everyone the chance to connect and create conversation.  

Holidays can put a lot of pressure on people in social situations, so ease into
your gathering with these icebreakers or Thanksgiving questions. This can even
be helpful for making small talk with other volunteers or the guests you are
serving. For a traditional Thanksgiving, start your event off with a few games
that are great for the whole family!  

This Thanksgiving season, plan to gather and give back with those around you. By
simplifying organization with online sign ups, you'll have more time to spread
joy and reflect on all that you are thankful for this season.

SignUpGenius is the perfect tool for any gathering or event planning! I use it
for potlucks, baby showers, birthday parties, meal trains and anything that
requires coordination between a group of people! I love that it also allows me
to keep a separate head count of adults & children as that helps me be better
prepared for the crowd! It saves me so much time! Love SignUpGenius!
