There are two separate roles and they can be performed by the same person or two different people:
- Setup at the start of the night
- Packdown at the end
Classes
Each role takes 30 - 45 minutes max and includes dealing with furniture, sound equipment, lighting and signs.
Setup and Packdown crew get free entry and half a credit for each role.
Parties
Parties take longer to setup and packdown and so crew get free entry and a full credit for each role.
