My huge commendation to Jon and Phoebe for putting together an awesome
little space for WP at this year's Maker Faire. Wish we could have
done more, but in a sense it makes so much sense to see our volunteers
building a volunteer space at a volunteer-oriented making event like
Maker Faire. It's a real one of a kind.
And of course big props to all the volunteers who got to come out and
join in the outreach efforts. Here's to many more (funnelcakes) and
makerfaires!

Trying to answer everything, & changing subject

On the weekend proper, volunteers please check in at the Maker
check-in booth, as explained here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Meetup/San_Francisco/Maker_Faire#How…
On Friday, load-in info is here:
http://cdn.oreilly.com/make/makerfaire/ba09/MF09_BA_Maker_Manual.pdf
It says to come to gate CC; "security will issue a Temporary Vehicle
Entry Permit to all vehicles entering the grounds. This Entry Permit
will require your cellphone number to be listed."
That's all the info I have about it. Call me or Jon if you get stuck.
(will send numbers separately).
I did add the names of everyone who contacted me off list to the
volunteer list.
Also: can we please try to use the wiki as much as possible for
questions/answers? There are some volunteers who aren't on this list,
and I don't want to overly spam the people who are that aren't
involved :)
Thanks! See you all this weekend!

Yes! Jon's stopping by mid-day. See offlist
message.
For Friday: I plan to get there mid-afternoon, around 3pm. Wikihow
will also be there around that time. You will need to go to gate
CC if
you are coming on Friday. Please contact me if you are planning to
come down then (George, I know you're coming).
Everyone: sorry, all the mail about maker faire will be over soon :)

Is gate CC the one in back, behind the expo?
The event map shows that as "Maker and Volunteer check-in". Is that
the right place for people showing up on the weekend proper to go,
versus the front gate? Or do we find that out tomorrow afternoon
when
we show up? 8-)
