Information for our Fabulous Instructors

Pre-Event Reminders: Instructors are fabulous!

Be sure to check the Attendee Info page for valuable information regarding health forms, maps, service projects, last-minute updates, etc.
Check in: Regardless of when you arrive, please first check in before you unload anything. Don't forget to bring your health form.
Saturday Arrival: A separate instructor registration table will be set up for you to expedite your arrival (a perk of being an instructor). I look forward to meeting those of you who are at this time phone and/or email friends and seeing again those of you who are already friends. Classes will begin at 8:30 am.
Early supplies dropoff: If you are interested in dropping off your class supplies during our set up on Friday. Please let Sheila or Marie Wright know. We should be in the educational wing of the church from 9 AM - 4 PM, but these times are approximate.
Tables: The first class to use an area sets up the tables and participants may be enlisted to help as a team. The last class to use an area is asked to help make sure it is back to "Sunday School" form. Please check the posted schedule to see if you are the first or last class for a specific area.
Class Materials/Supplies: Everyone will get an envelope for each class they are scheduled to teach upon registration. The materials that you bring for your classes may be unloaded at your class site, in a bin with a top or closed box clearly labeled with your name and class name and time. If you feel more comfortable taping the lids, do so, but we have never had an issue with materials before. When you class is finished and you have the time, you might want to take your materials to your car. No one should remove your materials without your say so, please reiterate this info to your car mates.
Classes - location, timing, cleanup:

Please schedule enough time in your class for clean up by you and your participants. All areas need to be the same as when you started. Be ready to vacate your area as soon as your class is scheduled to end so the next class can set up.
If you are teaching one of the potentially "messy but fun" classes, you will need to bring a plastic table cloth ($1 at the Dollar Tree or similar store) for each table that you use. News papers under the table cloths can be good too, depending on what you are doing. We musn't do any damage or have any visible spills on the church property.
If your class generates great quantities of trash, please bring sufficient large plastic garbage bags to take care of your refuse. Instructions where to leave the bags will be in your class packet.
Some activities will need to be completed by participants on their own because it takes some longer than others to finish. This info should be included in your class welcome email to your students.

Paperwork: Please remember to take roll and give out your Mountain Magic evaluations (found in your class packet) at the beginning of your class. A Camp Helper will come by sometime during class to collect your roster. When you collect the evaluations during clean up time, please put them in your class envelope and drop the envelope off in the marked basket in the dining hall. Remember to include your own evaluation.
Reimbursement: Bring your receipts attached to the official reimbursement form to the event You will be reimbursed for the number of participants on your roster and your pre-approved budget. Please remember, no additional participants can join your class without an official admit slip from Marie Wright or Lianne Griffin. You need to turn in this class admit slip with your roll in order to be paid (if applicable) and the participant to get credit. You may find the reimbursement form here. If you need additional forms at camp, please see Lianne. All reimbursements will be made by check this year.
Class/Product Photo: Help us get a photo of your "finished product" from your class (if applicable). A camp helper will be visiting your class to take photos.

Thank you in advance for the wonderful class(es) that you will teach. Without you we would not have a Mountain Magic weekend that grows and gets better each year. You Make It Happen!

Remember to have a GREAT TIME, each of you, and let us know if there is anything we can do to make your weekend the best yet.

Y'all are awesome,

Sheila Mills
