BEHIND THE SCENES:
We will be able to start setting up at about 8:30 (and breaking down at 
4).

The event goes from 10a-4p. As much time as you have to be present from 
10-4, (the more the better from our standpoint).  If your community 
group wants to table, please just let me know and we'll do our best to 
accommodate.

OUR TEAM LEADS:
Kyle Talbert: Game master. Bringing together the goodness of youth and 
games.
McTate Strohman II: Host/MC mixing games and expressive arts. We will be 
flexibly responding to the availability of talent and the flow of the 
day to give community members the try out GreenGames, opportunities to 
perform, speak, hold panel discussions.
Katie Earle: Food, GLORIOUS FOOD!
