>of 7AM on Sunday morning :^)

>Also of course, a HUGE thanks to Ben Martinez! Without him stepping up to

>yesterday would have gone nowhere near as well.

>As a first-time event chair, I can now say that because of all of the folks
>who are MORE than willing to go WAY above their "fair share" of the
>workload, these events not only run smoothly but are even possible!

>For those thinking about "diving in" and chairing an event for the first
>time, I can tell you now "Just Do It" (do I have to pay royalties for saying
>that?). You WILL be busy all day, but you WILL get thru it and it isn't
>as bad as you think it will be. You WILL find plenty of folks willing to
>help out and do the "extras", all you have to do is ask!
>
>And for those who are active participants but not quite ready to dive in as
>an event chair (i.e. me last year, for instance), I urge you to try and
>learn some new jobs. It is ALL "on-the-job" training around SFR, and the
>jobs are not that difficult to learn. Just spend a little extra time (i.e.
>run your group, work your group, and then the "extra" job for a third group)
>by "tailing" a job you want to learn about. If you want to learn how to
>run Tech, just volunteer to help. If you want to see how the Motorhome
>crew runs, just watch! This not only benefits you, but also benefits SFR.
>
>So once again, THANKS to everyone who helped make yesterday's SFR event so
>successful!
