Black Dog Ride 1 Dayer 2018

SUNDAY 18TH MARCH 2018

COORDINATOR DOCUMENTATION HUB

This webpage has been built for the purposes of providing Black Dog Ride's 1 Dayer Coordinators with the paperwork they require to successfully organise, host and wrap up the iconic 1 Dayer held on the third Sunday of March each year.

Where possible, documents have been uploaded as PDF as many Ride Coordinators may view this page on tablets or smartphones and PDF makes for easy reading on those devices. But they've also been uploaded in editable .docx or .xlsx format (if possible) so that data can be entered directly into the form.

These documents are for Black Dog Ride's 1 Dayer Coordinators for the purposes of Black Dog Ride's 1 Dayer. No authorisation is provided for using or editing these documents outside of Black Dog Ride's 1 Dayer. That means - please do not share this webpage or documents or edit these documents. Thanks for your understanding.

There is a fair bit of printing required for the 1 Dayer. Black Dog Ride encourages you to source local businesses, local MPs (they usually say yes!) or other sponsorship to cover the costs of printing so that you are not out of pocket.

VOLUNTEER INFO

Volunteer Forms for Ride Coordinators

Black Dog Ride needs all Ride Coordinators to complete and return this form.

Volunteer Team Forms for Ride Team Members

Ride Coordinators need to complete the above form, but we also need the volunteers on your team to complete a brief form too. Black Dog Ride has (very expensive) volunteer insurance however only those who are registered with Black Dog Ride as volunteers can be covered.

Thus, yet another form :)

Your Corner Markers/Admin Team/Media Team etc etc all count as volunteers, providing they are volunteering for Black Dog Ride, as opposed to Lions Club members cooking brekky - they're covered by their own insurance.

Please share the form below with them, sign off on it and send it through to us OR share the volunteer registration with them: https://volunteers1dayer2018.eventbrite.com They don't need to do both. Thanks.

The ID Cards are credit card sized and can be worn on a lanyard to help other identify your Black Dog Ride credentials when you're out and about in the community.

Authority to Fundraise Letter

All Ride Coordinators will be individually emailed a letter formally authorising you to fundraise on behalf of Black Dog Ride.

1 Dayer Patch Request Form

You may end up having more riders than patches. We try to avoid this by encouraging online registrations to gauge numbers but it's always a guesstimate. In the event that you do run out of patches (and the decals) please print out a few copies of the form below for the ride check-in table, and they can be scanned/photographed/posted back to Black Dog Ride. Black Dog Ride will then post out patches to each rider.

SQUARE CARD READER TUTORIALS

This year, you will be issued a "Square Card reader" which is a small white square device that you can pair up with your mobile phone, and is capable of taking card payments. Along with the Square Card reader, you will be issued a Square Card log in. Each 1 Dayer nregion can access their merchandise inventory with this log in, and when taking cash, card, or donation payments it will send a live report to Black Dog Ride. It's a little bit like an EFTPOS machine except the app you will use on your phone includes all the merch items you can sell, enables you to take donations, refund, gift items and see a list of everything you've sold right there on the spot.

A brief overview of Square Card can be seen here: https://squareup.com/au/get-a-reader

Please take it step by step and try not to be intimidated by the technology. It is pretty easy to use but like all new tricks, it does take a little getting used to, be patient with yourself and you will pick it up :)

(You may need to have a power bank or power deck handy to keep the phone charged at ride check in.)
