Suggested guidelines:

•	Have a lead person in charge of being there for setup on the first day and the last day for tear down with responsibility to return the items to the service body.  The lead person should also be the single point of accountability, responsible for covering the hours where no one else volunteers and training the volunteers tending the booth.  The lead person should be able to answer tough questions in an appropriate way using the 12 traditions as reference.  Sample questions can be found in the PI handbook and at www.na-pi.org. 
•	Volunteers should meet with the lead person at least once before tending the booth for a training session.  Training session should include practice Q & A and the potential tradition violation scenarios.
•	Volunteers with less than one year clean in NA must have a partner volunteer that does have at least one year clean in NA.
•	If a booth visitor asks a question or wants more information, suggest that they write it down in the notebook on the table.  Make sure they leave their contact information.
•	Be interested in the visitors.  Make eye contact and point out the meeting lists, contact list and Services Request and WRSO order forms, explaining each.  Be warm and open and don’t get defensive or patronizing if they ask the hard questions or bring up difficult subjects.  Just speak directly to their fears using our literature as your guide.
•	Write down any interesting conversations you have with booth visitors.  Especially any concerns or questions, or needs that they feel NA do not address adequately.  This information may be very valuable.
•	Pass on contact information to the appropriate areas/service bodies.
