Folks,
I have to disagree with those who discourage the use of
stickers to identify paid admissions and members. While I was working at
As far as residue left on garments, we did have some
problems with leather or plastic and the adhesive, particularly in the heat of
the summer (it is an outdoor museum). We contacted the company and asked
them to print the stickers using a less aggressive adhesive and instructed our
admission staff to warn the few visitors wearing leather or plastic clothing to
place the sticker on another piece of clothing (pants, shirt, etc.), or to
attach it to their park map while visiting. All problems ceased at that
point.
As far as littering was concerned, we found the occasional
tag on the ground, but the stickers rarely fell off. Trash cans at the
exits successfully encouraged visitors to place the tags there. We didn’t
have any problems with litter in our entryway as a result of people divesting
themselves of the sticker. The Maintenance crew at the Park was very good
and kept the site looking very clean all of the time. Visitors often
commented on the upkeep of the site, and perhaps the fact that it was obvious
we worked hard to maintain a litter-free environment helped coerce them into
not littering.
Whatever litter or logistical problems we encountered were
more than made up by the good customer service we were able to provide as a
result of using the stickers.
Just my two cents,
