Attendance — tracking and reporting

When conducting funded and locally supported chapter activities hosted by Thrivent Financial for Lutherans chapter service teams or the chapter leadership board, the service teams are asked to track and report total members attending, total attendance and total member households actively involved.

If a chapter service team cohosts an activity with an organization instead of another chapter service team, the service team should report what it feels is its "fair share" of the attendance (i.e., the attendance that the service team feels was a direct result of its members' involvement in the activity).
If multiple chapter service teams host an activity, the attendance total should be split among all participating chapter service teams. For example, the service teams may want to divide the attendance total by the number of chapter service teams involved so that each chapter receives equal attendance credit.

Because of the difficulty that may be involved in tracking exact counts for activities, we recommend that service teams estimate as best as they can when providing these numbers to chapter leaders or congregational coordinators for reporting purposes.

Attendance sheet available for chapter service teams
An Attendance Sheet that chapter service teams can use to help them track attendance is available in the Volunteer Resources section (under "Forms") in the Members/Chapters area of thrivent.com.
