2014 Opportunity Quilt Info
Opportunity Quilt
Your organization will have the opportunity to sell a quilt to benefit a non-profit organization. Management and
staffing for the selling of opportunity quilt tickets is the responsibility of the organizations who desire to sell their
opportunity quilts at the show. The following guidelines are to be followed.
1. The quilt may be a “work in progress” at the time the entry is mailed; however the quilt must be finished
completely when turned in for hanging. Unfinished quilts will not be accepted. The quilt must have a 4 inch
wide sleeve.
2. Each participating organization will appoint a spokesperson, who will interact with the SDQS chairperson.
3. Make sure you have ticket sellers for each day (usually done in two hour shifts.) If your quilt is unattended,
then tickets can not be sold by another organization. We will provide a table and two chairs for each Guild.
4. No other items are allowed to be a part of the opportunity quilt, and no other fund raising items may be sold.
You may bring in Guild information, Flyers and program schedules to be shared with the attendees.
5. People working the first shift will be able to enter 10 minutes before the show begins each day in order to set
up their area. They must take the money with them at the end of the day, but they can leave the tickets and
stubs under the table at the end of the day.
6. You must be a Non-Profit organization. IN CALIFORNIA, A NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATION MUST
REGISTER WITH THE ATTORNEY GENERALS REGISTRY OF CHARITBLE TRUSTS PRIOR TO CONDUCTING THE RAFFLE AND FILE FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE REPORTS ON EACH RAFFLE EVENT.
FORMS ARE AVAILABLE AT http://ag.ca.gov./charities/raffles.php. You must provide proof of your current
registration.
7. Any organization that does not comply with the above instructions will not be allowed to sell tickets at the
show.
8. Because we feel that your participation is a service to your guild, We require that your Volunteers, pay to get
into the show. Perhaps each guild would be willing to reimburse your volunteers, as part of the expense of
selling tickets.
All quilts must be turned in on Monday, September 1, 2014 between 1-4 PM at Rosie’s Calico Cupboard
Classroom. You will be able to take your opportunity quilt at the end of the show on Saturday. You must
provide Dorothy McRann with the name and phone number of the person responsible for taking the quilt.
