Tomorrow's club game finishes about 2:15, and at that point the sectional prep starts. The housing dept. is closed on Fridays, so we generally have the place to ourselves. Things to do: * Clear out space in the second room * Set up tables spaced in a careful grid (we'll be measuring) * Set up supply tables on the sides of the room * Start the kitchen prep and get all the supplies in there * In the main room, clearing off the table cloths and bidding boxes * spacing the tables on an 8-foot grid * returning the table cloths * setting up bidding boxes in both rooms * pencil sharpening * Bridgemate distribution For me: Make eight board sets, six for the first session, two for the second. (I'll make more during lunch for the second session.) Gloria is bringing signs. I couldn't tell her what we needed exactly, but now I know it'd be nice to have section signs, i.e., "Section B -->" down the hall, Sections A and C will be in the main club. Our director-in-charge will be arriving sometime Friday afternoon, so we'll be setting up his desk for entry sales, computer, printer (John are you bringing a printer?), Bridgemate server, etc. We'll decide how to divvy up the sections and have everything laid out for Saturday morning. I'll probably be at the club at 8:30 on Saturday, but if everything seems ready on Friday night, maybe I'll sleep in an extra half hour. :) Cheers, Mojo -- build message Morris "Mojo" Jones mojo(a)PasadenaBridgeClub.com https://PasadenaBridgeClub.com <https://pasadenabridgeclub.com> Pasadena Bridge Club <https://pasadenabridgeclub.com>
