Eric,
I can help out with the setup on Friday and be there on Saturday. I think
I'd also be able to help with the breakdown on Sunday. Since I have a
blazer, I can also help transport stuff if its necessary.
For contributions, I'd be happy to bring a bunch of standard issue street
signs. I'm also working on an "octopus" ride which would go with Jorge's
ferris wheel. However, I'm not sure if it will be ready (not to mention if
there's enough space).
