Learnings from two successful Community BBQs!

Gearing up for 'Nourish + Connect' #3, the team have taken stock of what works well, what they can do better, and how to support this bi-monthly community event to flow as smoothly as possible. Some of the take-aways from the first two BBQ events:

  • There are never enough desserts!!
  • Promotion is working, particularly letterbox dropping
  • There are more volunteers needed for on the day, so all volunteers can enjoy the event and have some breaks. Ideally we have 12-15 volunteers
  • Many people come early on, so most of the food needs to be ready to serve by then
  • Clear roles and tasks will help the event run smoother, and allow for volunteers to work autonomously on different tasks. We will create 'task cards' for all the different volunteer roles
  • It's time to gather some feedback from guests - we will develop a feedback form for the next BBQ (March 15)

If you would like to volunteer at the next Community BBQ - please reach out! All extra hands are welcome.
