Hi Laszlo: At our prize redemption booth, we had like 4-5 people in it, with 1-2 people counting the tickets and giving the kids back a coupon that said, This coupon worth ____ tickets. (Just fill in the amount they gave you)Then they can browse a little and let you know when they are ready, we had a person for each prize level (1 ticket, 5 tickets, 10 tickets, etc)We only set out 1 or 2 or each prize (it was actually taped to the table) with boxes underneath the table. It got busy at times, especially towards the end, but overall went pretty smoothly. FYI: Our carnival is for 4 hrs, and there are about 500 people or so that come.
Our PTO is looking for carnival prizes which are not made by child laborors in the orient. We are considering using the "win tickets - trade for prize" idea so we can have more flexibility on cost.
1. Does anyone know of a company that certifies that their products are not from sweat-shops or labor camps?
2. Suggestions on the ticket redemption booth to avoid chaos.
