15 STEPS FOR A SUCCESSFUL STREET CURLING COMMUNITY EVENT

Running a street curling community event can be a fun and engaging way to bring people together. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you organize a successful street curling event:

1.Define the Purpose and Goals:

Clearly outline the purpose of the event. Is it for socialising, promoting physical activity, or fundraising?

Set specific goals, such as the number of participants, community engagement, or funds raised.

2.Get Permissions:

Check with local authorities and obtain any necessary permits to use public spaces.

Get approval from property owners if the event involves private spaces.

3 Secure a Location:

Choose a suitable location with enough space for the inflatable street curling setup.

Consider accessibility, parking, and amenities like restrooms.

4.Hire Equipment:

Check with Street Curling (9829 8929) about the event venue, size of the play area, access to power etc.

5.Create a Budget:

Outline all potential expenses, including permits, equipment rental, marketing materials, and any other costs.

Plan for potential revenue sources, such as entry fees or sponsorships.

6.Promote the Event:

Give the event a name eg “Winter Wonderland Festival”, “Christmas in July”, “Community Curling for Fun” etc.

Use various channels to promote the event, including social media, local community boards, and newsletters.

Create eye-catching posters and flyers to distribute in the community.

Make sure sponsors are acknowledged on your marketing.

7.Registration Process:

For large events, set up an online registration system to track participants and streamline the check-in process.

Determine if there will be a registration fee and communicate any requirements.

Street Curling can supply “player wrist bands” for those who register so you can know who have registered and who haven’t.

8.Volunteer Recruitment:

Recruit volunteers to assist with event setup, registration, and coordination.

Assign specific roles to ensure a smooth flow during the event.

9.Create a Schedule:

Develop a timeline that includes setup, registration, gameplay, and any additional activities.

Allow for breaks and ensure a balance between structured activities and free time.

10. Safety Measures:

Clearly communicate safety guidelines to participants.

Have a first aid station on-site and ensure that volunteers are aware of emergency procedures.

11. Food and Refreshments:

Consider having food and beverage options available – Street Curling’s parent company Bubbling With Energy Entertainment, can provide carnival food such as fairy floss, popcorn and sno cones. Check them at www.bubblingwithenergy.com.au.info/product-category/carnival-food/

Ensure there are waste disposal options to keep the area clean.

12.Music and Entertainment:

Enhance the atmosphere by organising music or entertainment.

Consider involving local performers, dance schools etc.

13.Document the Event:

Assign someone to take photos and videos during the event.

Share the highlights on social media and local news outlets.

14.Collect Feedback:

Distribute surveys or feedback forms to participants to gather insights for future events.

Analyse what worked well and identify areas for improvement.

15.Thank Participants and Volunteers:

Show appreciation by thanking participants, volunteers, and sponsors.

Consider giving out certificates or small tokens of appreciation.

By following these steps, you can organise a successful street curling community event that fosters a sense of community and provides an enjoyable experience for participants.
