I will be visiting the show on Sunday. Would be happy to help out. I imagine Dean will be likewise. If there is a choice on times I would prefer early or lunchtime.

As with previous years I suggest we will split each day into 4 shifts of about 2 hours.  There will also be set-up on Friday night and breakdown end Sunday.  Have we decided (got a volunteer) for an actual boat?

Previously those manning the stand  contributed £5 to the entry pass that lasts for whichever day(s) you are helping.  So to kick things off (fill in the gaps):

Joe can help out on Saturday and Sunday. I am sure more of the Midland posse will be around soon to add to this.
I will be working both days so not able to be part of the Cherub crew/posse.

I would love to help.

However, despite being a very keen, yet perhaps slightly naive if not lacking knowledge in the area of cherubs, I am at a university visit day (on the 28th, and come back late on the 1st). So, cannot.

Although when I was fully intending to go to the Dinghy Show (before I was invited to the visit day), I bought a pair of train tickets to get to Alexandra Palace, and back,  from specifically Stourbridge, although go via Moor Street and Snow Hill so pretty much easy to get to from anywhere (reasonably!) close to Birmingham.

The tickets were originally £69 for both sets, but I want very little for them (especially if they help someone get to the Dinghy Show, to enjoy the day, even when I can't).

They will get you to the show on time for David Henshall's new book release, and mean you can spend most of the day there with someone of your choice, not to mention the lack of 'extra' cost associated with new train tickets...

So, if anyone has a use for these tickets, please let me know and they can be on your way!

Cheers,

Max

PS - although this could be considered hijacking the thread, it could also get someone to the Dinghy Show to help on the stand, when (despite wanting to), I can't....(but, admins - do what is required, if anything to this post...)

I can do slot 4 on Saturday afternoon.

I may be able to help on Sunday afternoon too.

I will be arriving on Friday mid morning with the wayfarer and the exhibitor wristbands.

I expect these to arrive in the next few days.

I will pass these on to Nick on Friday so he can co-ordinate on Saturday morning. We are first on the main stage at 10:30am both Saturday and Sunday so am trying to avoid any other commitments around this time.

Correct DC. standing and representing the class gets free entry :-)
The show have posted me the bands (they have yet to update the sec address).

Anyone manning the stand who has not yet got a  ticket  = please PM me so I can check we have enough
