Tabling Guide

How we show up: welcoming, uncluttered, and here to educate.

1. The look

  • A 6-foot table with the green Iowa Cannabis Action tablecloth and the banner.
  • The one-page handout, neatly stacked. Uncluttered beats crowded.

2. What goes on the table

  • Supporter sign-up QR code.
  • Newsletter sign-up clipboard.
  • "Where to Volunteer" cards.
  • Our statement card: we're an education and advocacy organization; we don't sell or give away cannabis, cannabis products, or seeds.

3. People

  • Two volunteers per shift, 2–3 hours each.
  • Iowa Cannabis Action shirt or name badge.
  • Friendly and relaxed: we educate, we never pressure.

4. The rules

  • No cannabis — no products, samples, or giveaways, ever.
  • Nonpartisan — no candidate or party materials at our table.
  • Patient privacy — never share anyone's story, name, photo, or health details without permission.
  • Press — only designated spokespeople speak to reporters; take their contact and pass it along.

5. Setup and after

  • Arrive 30 minutes early and check in with the event organizer.
  • Leave the space cleaner than you found it.
  • Afterward, log your hours in the volunteer portal and turn in the sign-up sheets.
