Fit-up

From Electromagnetic Field

We need your help getting the EMF site ready in the week before the event, and taking it down afterwards.

Our license allows us to have a limited number of people on site during fit-up and takedown, and we're still short of people who can join us on site to help out on Wednesday.

Availability

If you're available to come and help us set up, fill in this form to let us know. We'll email you with details.

Fit-up crew can join us on site from 10am on Tuesday August 28th.

(If you previously filled in the table on this wiki, your details have been preserved.)
