Get PNMs Interested and Involved
What sets your club apart? Think of some fun, creative ways that you can get potential new members interested in joining your group.

Collect contact information from interested students with quick and easy methods. Students receive lots of information at the fair, and you should follow up by communicating with those who showed interest in your org afterwards.
Get Your Supplies Ready
Make sure your team has all their supplies ready before the day of First Look Fair. Did you get your pens, flyers, clip board, or even your table cloth?
Make Your Tabling Sign Up List
You may need shifts to staff your table. Organize your team so they know when to show up, for how long, and what they need to do.
