Next weekend is the Omaha Pride Festival, July 11 and 12. Once again, we will have a booth and be talking to particpants and handing out information about our group. Our booth is number 17, on the back side of the front row, in the Southwest corner of the hall at the CHI center. If you are coming in the participant entrance, take a right and look for us on the back side of row 1. For those of you coming in the load in door, dock C on the east side, go left and to the opposite side of the hall.
For set up on Friday, I am expecting to meet Justin, Deb, and Todd at the dock C at 3pm. Parking is in lot D, north of the CHI center and accessed off of Abbot Drive. Parking ususally costs $10. It is a bit of a walk from lot D to dock C. I will bring all the stuff in my car and unload at dock C. We will need to be set by Youth Pride opening at 5pm. The event is 5 to 10.
We are still looking for one person to work the booth Friday night as Miriam and I are not available.
We leave the booth set up Friday night.
Saturday hours are noon to 5pm followed by tear down. Parking is in lot D, $10 again. First shift, Come in the dock C entrance by 11am or the main doors when they open them. If you need to buy a ticket to get in, we will reimburse you for the ticket cost.
Miriam and Don will be there all day Saturday, however we need two additional booth helpers for first shift, 11 to 2:30. and two more helpers from 2 to 5pm followed by tear down. Contact Don to volunteer for either Friday or Saturday. (miriamdon@aol.com)
