We can't believe a year has passed, and here we are again. We
hope you had a wonderful year and are looking forward to
seeing you all again. I think we all know this might be our
most challenging year. As we begin planning for the drive we
are setting things in motion now so that the weekend goes as
smoothly as possible.
This year's drive will take place Thursday Dec. 11 thru Sunday
Dec. 14.
We also want to give you details about our celebrity
bartending fundraiser to save the date and spread the word.
(see info below)
First of all, If you have been a volunteer but would like to
get even more involved, please let us know. Here are a few
jobs we hope you will consider: You can sign up at the bottom
of this page and select the job you would like to help with.
Santa Captain-
Help us find some Santa's!
-
A Santa captain is the liaison between SWC and your Santa's. A
Santa Captain will assign Santa's for a group of children from
your circle of friends and relatives etc. and follow up with
them to ensure the gift has been purchased and gets to us by
the weekend.
-
We have specific instructions we will give if you are
interested.
-
Many Santa Captains are also Sorter Captains if they can make
it to the Santa's Workshop weekend.
Sorter Captain - On site during the Santa's
Workshop weekend!

You will be in charge of anywhere from 30 to 50 wish
lists.

It
is preferable that you be there Friday eve thru Sunday or
until your list is complete.

You will make sure everything is
there and make a shopping list for missing items.

You will be trained in detail
and we are always there for any questions.
Phone
Captain - Help us make phone calls!

A phone captain provides follow up to Santa's assigned on the
website.

You
will contact Santa's via phone to make sure they have received
all their info.

Make sure they understand labeling instructions, and will fill
their wish(es).

-
We'd like Website Captains to
cover 50 Santa's if possible or 25 minimum.

If you can also be a sorter at
the Santa's Workshop weekend, we will assign you the same
group of Santa's so you have continuity from start to finish
with those Santa's.
