Folks - Well, the time has come to get the ball rolling & we need coordinators & assistants to head up some of these events/functions.
For those that have never attended, or who have attended & not volunteered in the past, it's a no-brainer. Start a topic & post what is needed, then maintain a list of volunteers to bring stuff or assist. For food events you will need, besides volunteers to bring their finest dishes, a setup & cleanup crew. All paper/plastic products, condiments, water, & coffee will be provided by MOC.
Don't be shy or intimidated - you'll have lots of help. It's also a great way to meet folks & develop friends in the MOC. The WM's will be your contacts & will offer whatever help you need. Please see the contacts list at the bottom of this post.
To volunteer as a COORDINATOR: first pick an event/function that you would like to coordinate, then either email/PM the
contact for your function to sign up. Your
contact (see below) will then help you in organizing the info for your post, & keep tabs on how things are proceeding.
To Help a Coordinator, or Contribute to an event,such as a PotLuck, just post a Reply in that event's section & the Coordinator will sign you up.
The response has been OUTSTANDING, & the WM's want to extend our thanks to all that have VOLUNTEERED. Without ALL of YOU, WE couldn't make this work! We especially want to extend our thanks to the First-Timers who have stepped up to the plate - you are the future of the MOC, & there is no better way to start...
Below is the list of events (by no means inclusive) to get things started, & folks who have already stepped forward to coordinate:

Obviously, this is NOT a complete list & is subject to change. The schedule We are still working with Keystone for the Vendor list to see how much time we have for other options (& there's a BIG list of stuff). We only have a week for the Rally, so we want to fit in as much as possible.
We will post the coordinators here, as we get them. They will then start a post for their event.
