Guest
Register Updates
Rule of thumb for Guest Registration: If someone
uses the Welcome Center or a Welcome Center Service, they
count and should sign the guest register. If
someone is here for the sole purpose for one of the other
partners, they do not sign the guest register. However, that
must be their SOLE purpose! If they then come down and ask you
about the state of Colorado and you help them in a travel
related function, they count. Please review the information on
how to log in the Outside Rack brochures from last months
newsletter.
Schedules
Schedules for
February are now open to all people and if you have not signed
up for March you might want to take a look and put in your
information for the month or vacations you are planning to
take.
Opening/Closing
Baking Soda
has been bought for cleaning the coffee pots at night/after
use. Please be sure to put a small amount of the baking soda
in each pot, scrub and rinse them each night to reduce the
build up. The new pots will be a fresh beginning and we can
keep them that way if we take care of them properly.
Please place both pots in front of the donation area
to reduce spills. In the event of spills please be sure to
clean up the entire spill and check along the sides of the
cart, in the drawers and in the cabinets as we have had to
clean some rather old spills in recent months.
The
Fort Collins Convention & Visitors Bureau receives a
newspaper from the Coloradoan each day. Please put this paper
in the manager's office each day or you can take it upstairs
and place it in front of their office door if you have
time. It will be left by the delivery driver near the
outside display rack each morning.
Please be sure to
flip the open and closed sign each night and morning.
Lunch Delivery
Monday--Friday
Catherine,
from Burrito Kitchen in Longmont, will be coming by each day,
to see if you would like anything for lunch. She usually comes
by around 11- 12. She sells a variety of burritos and various
other items. The menu for the week is on display on the file
cabinets in the manager's office if you would like to think
about it for the future. The burritos are all priced under $3
and are warm when you get them. Several Travel Counselors have
tried them already so ask around to see what others think.
Surveys
If you come
in and cannot find the surveys, please look in the survey
folder, if there are five plus surveys for your day and they
are completed you don't need to worry. However, if you look
and you cannot find any surveys for your day then it may mean
that they were not stocked on the clipboard by the manager or
that the clipboard was not taken out of the office and it is
important that we find it and or stock it so that we don't get
behind as we did New Year's Day weekend. Please call the
manager if you cannot find the surveys for your day to avoid
getting behind again.
Negativity and
Inappropriate Conversations
Please do not
discuss the smog, politics, religion, the war in Iraq and
other similar topics with the travelers or while you are here
at the center. It is important to keep these conversations out
of the center as we are here to provide a welcoming and
neutral resource for travelers. If someone engages you in one
of these conversations (including relocation) and will not let
you extricate yourself, do your best to redirect the
conversation to traveling or travel related topics. Some
people will not allow you to do this--just simply do your best
in these situations and be sure that you |
