Volunteer Shifts


Accessibility:

This is a primitve site. The indoor bathrooms are handicap accessible. Beyond that, we're working under 1800s like conditions.


Electrical Availability:

Electricity is in very short supply. The entire site runs on two breakers. There are plans to augment that slightly with a small solar farm. This should help out with recharging small electronics - cell phones, camera batteries, and the like. We do not expect to be able to charge Larger devices; such as CPAPs, marine batteries, or laptops; on site.


Merchants:

We have space for merchants. There is no cost but we ask that you contact Philippe in advance so that we can ensure space for everyone.
We would also encourage those bards with CDs for sale to bring them to sell. All sales tax is the responsibility of the merchant.

The following merchants will be vending at the event:
Tosten's Pots
Auntie Arwin's Spices
Ivor's Leather
Bass Creations
Rhodri's Books
