General Set Up

2:00-5:30

Many hands make for light work!

Without a strong set up crew there is no (un)Gala! We have a beautiful venue and a lot will be furnished for us but we still want to add our own touches.

Can you make it for an hour? We need you! Can you make it for two hours? We need you! Can you make it for the whole set up time? We definitely need you!

**Any amount of time to help is SO VALUABLE to us and MUCH appreciated! Please indicate your available time at sign up**
