COMMITTEE REPORTS
Setup & Breakdown, chair Leigh Radtke.
· Setup: Leigh is renting a 15-foot truck. Members of the committee will meet at Anna Conti’s house at 9 am on Friday, June 2nd to load the panels on the truck. Anna’s address is 1426 41st Avenue between Judah and Kirkham. Then members will go to the HOF, unload the panels and set-up the panels.
· Note: People on Setup should bring their artwork with them so when the panels are up they can go ahead and decorate their space.
· Breakdown: Every participant will help with preparing their own booth for breakdown; the breakdown committee loads the panels on the truck and takes them back to Anna’s house.
