Al,

You pick the time..... I have a feeling I will be there most of the time so be careful in what you are saying or you may wind up in the booth for quite some time...... Tuxblacray2008-07-14 12:32:23

Thanks to Tux for taking the charge and representing C3VR at Funfest.
Thanks to those that have already signed up to help.

That place gets VERY busy, so he can not do it alone.  Please make sure to help Tux!! Make sure every slot has at least one helper.  If you already signed up for one slot, please consider two slots. They don't have to be back to back, and don't even have to be on the same day.

Thanks!

Hey Tux!
From the Funfest folks:
 
We are giving away $50,000 worth of gift certificates on Sunday, September 21, 2008!
Stick around and you could win!
perrie.richards@mamotorworks.com
Funfest Communications
 
I'll be on-site Sunday AM, and will be available for the 8-10 (or so) slot.  Who knows, maybe I'll win something!  I think by Sunday, the only thing I'll be looking for is a shower, so early at the booth is better...don't want to scare anyone off....

I may not be able to make my scheduled time on Friday from 3-5 so I assume it is better to tell you than not show up... Can I beg out and offer to take the Sunday from 10-12 instead?

Change made and thanks for letting me know Joe, I appreciate that!

There are a few slots open if anyone would like to lend a hand. The pay isn't very good (none) but the experience will last all year long!
