Team/Infodesk

Contact

Proposed remit & vague ideas of what may need to be dealt with:

Provide up-to-date information on what's happening at the camp to:
Organising and running the physical info desk
Creating/liaising with communications over creation of info packs etc for attendees (see below)
Be the main contact for HQ
Run the camp 'General Store'

Confirm remit
Confirm difference with communications (i.e. who makes info packs etc, should this be separate)
Start looking at quotes for packs

The desk should be able to answer the following sorts of questions:

attendees/everyone
- What should I do about (noise, this fire, my tent mutating into godzilla, zombies)?
  - Most likely: "group X are being noisy and I'm trying to sleep, help please?"
- What's on (now, next year....)?
- Where is (alpha stage, the death weasel village, atlantis...)?
- How do I (get internet, join a workshop/village, volunteer, dance the mamba...)?
speakers
- Can I use (a mac, an OHP, glow-in-the-dark paint, semaphore...)? and how do I?
- How long before my talk do I have to get there/ what do I need to do before hand?
- Can someone help me with (setting up high voltage death wand, moving un-moveable block ...)?
volunteers
- Can I change my (shift, role, t-shirt size...)?
- When does my shift start?
- What do I need to do?
