We are currently looking for volunteers and volunteer groups that would be able to help us with set-up and take down for the event. The Set-up would include helping with tables, chairs, linens, decorations, cleaning, etc on September 28th. Take-down would include helping to put tables and chairs away, cleaning, etc on September 30th.
