Use this template for small events, workshops, classes, volunteer tables, and meetups where readable badges and a clean check-in table matter more than a full event system.

- [ ] Groups or roles are short.
- [ ] Pronouns are included only when provided or invited.
- [ ] Private notes are not printed on badges.
- [ ] A marker and spare blanks are available at check-in.

## Filling Notes
- Use the attendee's preferred name when available.
- Keep public notes short, such as table, team, volunteer, or speaker.
- Sort by last name, first name, group, or table depending on the check-in flow.

## Boundary Reminders
- Do not print payment status, contact details, access notes, private accommodations, or internal flags on name tags.
- Name tags help conversation; they do not replace attendance tracking or registration records.

How to adapt it

Replace bracketed text with your details, remove sections you do not need, and keep the final version short enough for the reader to act on.

FAQ

Can I use this for a small event?

Yes. It is designed for lightweight check-in tables, workshops, classes, meetups, and volunteer events.

Should check-in notes be printed on badges?

Only print notes that are appropriate for the attendee to display publicly. Keep private notes separate.

How many blank tags should I prepare?

For small events, a small blank batch is usually enough for walk-ins, spelling corrections, and changed names.

What should the badge emphasize?

The attendee name should be most visible. Group, table, or role is secondary.
