What to Tell Event Volunteers About Parking
Send parking and entrance details to the people working the relevant Proximatic shifts. Help setup and later volunteers find the right lot and reach their meeting point.
A volunteer can arrive at the right venue and still miss the briefing while searching for somewhere to park. Send the route all the way from the lot to the person expecting them.
For Saturday’s 8am setup shift, use the south car park on Mill Road. Walk past the loading bay to the side door, where Jo will meet the crew. If that lot is full, use the signed overflow area and call Jo if you’ll miss the start.
Adapt the details to the arrangements your venue has made. A later crew may use a different entrance after the loading area closes; give that crew the directions for its arrival time.
In Proximatic, select the setup shifts when sending the early parking instructions, then send the afternoon team its own route. You can reach the people affected without asking the whole event to interpret several sets of directions.
Keep any briefing in the shift hours, too. People can plan their journey around the commitment they chose, and the lead can see the crew they’re preparing to meet. See directions to the right door for the next part of the arrival.
