Planning a successful event

The planning checklist is a "to-do list" designed to assist chapters in preparing for student outreach meetings.

To plan your meeting:

• Organize a committee of volunteers
• Define dates and times for the event (Sept/Oct or Mar/Apr)
• Identify speaker(s)
• Identify a suitable facility and equipment
• Obtain quotes for printing the marketing materials and for the giveaways.
• Obtain quotes for food and beverages.
• Submit an estimated budget for the projected costs for the event to the treasurer.
• Specify a “cut-off” date to determine if the event should be cancelled due to insufficient number of participants.
