The Work-Exchange program provides for a much reduced rate for the weekend program ($25.00) in exchange for
about 4 to 6 hours of help. The jobs include helping in the setup of the facility on Friday afternoon, cleanup on Sunday afternoon,
floor sweeping between dance sessions and manning the welcome / information tables. There are about a dozen slots available.
Acceptance is quasi-first come, but with preference given to people that have done the jobs in the recent past and the needs of the
weekend.
Most of the slots are for the welcome / information table; however, Friday afternoon setup also has a high priority.
If you have not volunteered for registration / info table duty before, there will be an orientation session Friday evening.
