We have basically 3 families that will be there and help with each P/W. Each of us will do what ever is necessary.
1 of the families usually will help with the maint., signs, and set up. Another family is best with our dinner preparation and the committees table(we have t-shirts, coffee cups, cold drink cups, and hats all with our logo).They will also help sell some of our drinnks during the dance. Our family will over see the entire dance. I am the p/wchairman/MC/set up/ contact/security/etc, my wife is the secretary and head cook (in the FRYBREAD/NDN TACO shed)/advertising and P/W booklet, Mom in charge of the traders, my sister is the tressurer/ concessions booth(hamburgers, hotdogs,sods pop), my nephews are in charge of the sound system(who's best at sound but young guys).
We don't have a contest, but enjoy a nice relaxed family oriented P/W. We try to make everyone that comes to help us feel like they are family. We have lots of camping,nice camping facilities. We now dance inside a large air conditioned bldg. We have a very special AD and he does great job each and every year. We select our headstaff on their merits. I don't just pick the staff simply because they can bring in 100's of people, though many can. As many of you that put on a dance know you are, quite tired but, very proud when the dancers dance to the great sounding songs and see them all having fun. This is what it is all about, having fun and share with the young.
