* A day-before reminder email*.
 
A higher energy strategy involves asking attendees about projects theirthey're interested in using info from the sign up form. (See here for [[Email_templates#Personalized_one_week_out_email | details and templates]].) This strategy usually involves an extra 5-15 minutes of work per attendee but attendees are much more likely to show up (our experience is that personalized emails double-triple the attendance rate.) (Note: this strategy may need to be adjusted as we focus more on including projects which we already have relationships with.)
 
We recommend using strong language ("You *must* confirm if you want to attend on Sunday.") to ensure higher attendance.
