Discussion about what identifier to use

When people arrive at a social, how will they know who the Welcomers are? Let's throw some ideas around and come to a decision.

Or if we ever get our own cat mascot! (this one's for you Cassie):

Very chaotic but would certainly stand out for newcomers: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/111263476/boutique-bright-bee-over-the-top-hair?ref=sr_gallery_35&ga_search_query=bee+accessories&ga_page=5&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery

I like the bee badges. I like the idea of it being wearable to avoid having to store it/ carry it around. Also I kind of doubt that Palookaville would want to store anything for us to be honest. Just the vibe I get from them.

Another Idea that Pete had was to make our own badges. Which whilst I like the idea, even I don't much want one more thing to have to do/ organise.

I like the bee badges too - visible, relatively discreet and you don't have to carry them around. And cheap. Thanks for the ideas Rebecca. :-)

I'm feeling like it might be time for a proposal! Based on what we talked about at the meeting and what I see here I'm going to suggest we do the Bee Badges thing. With the proviso that someone other than Cassie take the lead on making it happen.

The identifier takes the form of a Bee Badge. Closed Mon 29 Sep 2014 9:08AM
Everyone who voted agreed that the identifier be a Bee Badge button. @rebeccawickham has offered to take the lead on getting this happening. Thanks all!
The Bee Badge would be like a button pinned to the clothing of the Welcomer during the time they are on Welcoming duty. The creation or purchase of these will be someone other than Cassie. She may play an advisory role but the main organising would be done by someone else.

I'm happy to order the bee badges. Say about 30 just so we have a few spare. I'll wait to hear on the final vote before I go ahead.

How about a bowtie? This particular one from Etsy is attached to a hair clip but we could vary it for wearing around the neck.
