Philips Arena
Designated Driver Booth Volunteer Instructions
Volunteers should come through the CNN Center food court to the Philips Arena entrance (near McDonald's). There is a side door marked Security just past the glass wall entrances to the Philips. The Team Leader will meet you at that door. Please arrive 30min prior to the gates opening. (gates open 1½ before event starts)
Volunteers will staff the booth near portal 11.
It is suggested that volunteers take MARTA to Philips Arena. Parking is limited and the volunteers are responsible for there own parking.
Volunteers should encourage patrons to register to be a Designated Driver (not to drink and drive). There is to be no loud "hawking" of free drinks or free tickets. This aspect of the program should be explained to individuals as they sign up.
When They Sign In:
- Give them a Designated Driver button to wear during the event.
- Each person signing up will receive a coupon for a free non-alcoholic beverage. These tickets are limited to one person per party. They may not sign up multiple people in order to receive extra tickets.
- Make sure they put their phone number and seat location on the sign-up sheet.
- Call a Taxi for any intoxicated person who approaches you and needs a ride home. A Taxi phone number is with the TEAM Georgia materials. If the person is out of control, quietly call for security.
- After the first period intermission for Thrashers games, the first quarter intermission for Hawks games, and the opening act intermission for concerts. If there is no opening act the booth will remain open for the first 30 minutes of the concert. The TEAM Leader will collect the signed pledge sheets and make sure all other Designated Driver materials (banners, brochures, buttons, etc…) have been collected and returned to our supply area.
- At this time, the Team Leader will contact Philips mgmt to let them know how many volunteers will be staying for the event. Philips mgmt will then secure passes/tickets for those people. Volunteers will then receive their seat assignment for the remainder of the event and meal tickets. In the event of sold out events other arrangements will be made.
