EARN BIG BAND CREDITS! Papa Johns at the Dome!
January 10th (Sat) Monster Jam….there will be an all day shift and an afternoon shift available. The first 15 folks asking for the all day shift will get it. The reimbursement will be $50 for all day, $25 for the afternoon shift only. The afternoon shift will need at least 25 folks, like a normal falcons game. Currently have 18 folks signed up. Need the afternoon shift only at this time which will probably leave Wheeler around 2-2:30pm.
January 24th (Sat) Honda Battle of the Bands….This is a competition of HBC bands and a great event to work. It gets out early and is usually fun for all. Again, this last year was a $16K day in sales which was ahead of the SEC Championship. We will need 25 folks for this event. Again, no hawking allowed for this event. Currently have 17 folks signed up. Need another 25 folks.
Feb 14th and 15th (Sat/Sun) Cheersport (GWCC Event) ….This is a competition of all those little girls (and a few boys) thru college where we really need everyone to sign up as much as they can. There will be 4 shifts for this event…..morning and evening shifts on both Saturday and Sunday. Reimbursement will be made as follows: 1 shift = $20, 2 shifts = $50, 3 shifts = $80, and 4 shifts = $110…..Since Saturday night is also the night to spend with your sweetie, I will also add $10 to anyone that picks that shift. We can make a lot of money at this event and I really need each family to see if there are any shifts they can work for this event!! In prior seasons we have made around $4K in these two days!! Remember that this is the last event that the younger students can work!!!! So you do not need to be 16 to work this event. We historically could get in the “older looking 14 year olds” into this event.
February 21st (Sat) Supercross….there will be an all day shift and an afternoon shift available. The first 15 folks asking for the all day shift will get it. The reimbursement will be $50 for all day, $25 for the afternoon shift only. The afternoon shift will need at least 25 folks, like a normal falcons game. Currently have 14 folks signed up. This will be the last event of the PPJ’s season and know that the folks that go to this event love Beer and Pizza, so this is always a fun and exciting event!!
