Have you actually had any contact with the TC mothership yet? I haven't seen anything yet about the usual paperwork, ordering, etc...

I don't handle that part. It'll get up on the site at some point.

In a public school in our county, you have to be on top of stuff in August. Our auditoriums fill up quickly with inside and outside events. The auditorium where we will have TC is joint managed by the town of Bel Air and the school district, it's a busy place!

As a sound and light tech for my "extra duties" (10 hours of supervision type stuff) I have to have my personal/work calendar ironed out real quick!

Just FYI- participant fee is now $15.00, up from $10.00. This applies to all TC events from what I'm told.
