The Rules:
All tweets/posts must contain the item number as defined in the item list
and the tag/hashtag (ex. Item 1 @GSISSUSERGROUP #GSISHunt16).
Tweets/posts must be submitted by the individual's account. Tagging others
in the tweet/post does not indicate an entry for tagged individuals.
All tweets/posts must be submitted by 5:00 pm on Thursday.
Entries not meeting these requirements are not eligible for drawing entries.
Any other ideas for rules? If we are going to do this, the rules need to
be finalized so Flora can print them for the bags. Thanks for offering
Flora!

This is an excellent idea. Last year we only did a "#" tag, but nothing
like this.
I would be up to helping Samantha keep up with this. It would only be
for Facebook or Twitter, as those are our two social media accounts that we
use most.
If everyone is on board, I can print business card size templates with
the 'rules' & print out 500 to stuff in bags.
I like the suggestions & we would say that they have to follow the
'rules' to a tee. Another rule is that they would have to 'follow us' on
either media.
I'm not sure about the prize, but it could be a tablet. It shouldn't be
a 'big' prize such as a free registration as not everyone is on social
media.
What we need to do as a group is agree on a prize & give us the go ahead.

This is a great idea, Samantha. The board tried something similar at a
previous conference, but you were right in that it is a difficult task for
someone to keep up with. If it was well planned in advance, AND others were
given specific tasks that they had to follow to assist, I think it would
work.

During an early meeting, we were discussing ways to get people to visit
the vendor tables. Well, what about a scavenger hunt that incorporates
twitter photos of themselves with the vendors, during sessions, and even
visiting some of the businesses on the river that donated door prizes???
They could tweet the photos with a caption matching listed item,
tagging #GSISHunt16 (or something like it). The hunt would need to be
completed by 5 PM on Thursday. The list could contain about 10 items. The
items could represent those "hard to get people involved" moments. For
example:
Items 1, 2, & 3 - Photos with vendors (it will be up to the vendors to
pitch their products)
Items 4 - Photo during a session
Item 5 - Photo with a GSIS Board member
Item 6 - Photo of them posting to the WOW moment board
Item 7 - Photo with a business representatives of one of the businesses
that donated door prizes (this would require a published list somewhere)
Item 8 Photo with a DOE employee
Item 9 - Photo during breakfast
Item 10 - Photo during 4 PM session
All of the people that complete the "list" will go into a drawing for a
free conference the next year (or a coveted door prize of sorts)???? The
winner would be announced during the closing session????
Thoughts? Compiling the tweets to know who goes in the drawing might
be a bit of a challenge. But, if they are required to tweet:
"Item 1 @GSISSUSERGROUP #GSISHunt16"
...it could make it easier to go down the page of #s to find the list.
I would be willing to contribute my time if it will help get people to
participate in those "more difficult to get participation" areas. And, the
number of items on the list is up to us. I just thought this might add a
bit more interaction.
It may be too late to incorporate this for 2016. But, 2017 will be
here before you know it.
