From: "Bell, Katie" Date: Sat, 5 Jun 2010 16:57:02 +1000 Subject: Footprints Ecofestival New Details -------------------------------------------- Hi all, I'm going to try to do this in one comprehensive email, so please bear with= me, and read everything that relates to you (I will try to highlight and o= r add headings) New Venue, Leichhardt Town Hall is on the Corner of Norton St and Marion St= in Leichhardt. The Leichhardt Town Hall is currently with all the stalls and all the bands= within it. All of the talks will take place in the Council Chambers at the top of the = stairs. The art exhibition and book swap will take place in the Supper Room also at= the top of the stairs. The Reverse Garbage Workshop will take place in the Councillors Room at the= first landing up the stairs. There is a Lift up to the top of the stairs that can be used for transporti= ng gods up to the rooms upstairs including the Councillors Room. Attached is a drawn lay out - everyone can take a look so you are aware of = where things inside the hall are. Transport/ Arrival Times - Everyone will need to come via the Marion St Car= Park to the side of the Town Hall. Access to the hall will be limited thro= ugh one or two doors - Your patience is appreciated! Please also remember o= ur Sound guys will be arriving and setting up at the same time as the stall= s! (9.30am approx) Stalls - Everyone has one table and two chairs except for those who have requested t= heir own set up or an extra table - which have been fulfilled as requested.= There are no tablecloths or coverings for the tables, please feel free to = bring your own and decorate your stall as you see fit. Almost everyone has = a wall behind their table to lean things against and where appropriate, sti= ck/ blue tac items up. This is a heritage building, your care for our hall = is appreciated. I have tried to group you all together in appropriate secti= ons so that relevant stalls are together. We will not be moving any stall l= ocations now. We can look at providing you an extra table if necessary thou= gh currently all good quality tables are being used. There are plenty of sp= are chairs so we can provide you those to sit/ stand display material on be= hind your stall etc. I will attempt to keep all the car spaces along the side of the Town Hall a= vailable for you as unload/ drop off areas and then we ask you move you car= to a different parking space for the day. Note, street parking is metered,= there is limited free space in the car park behind the Town Hall and there= are two more smaller car parks in the next two driveways along Marion St f= rom the Town Hall car park. We will provide some parking underneath our Administration building - you p= ark here at your own risk. Please to not touch any scaffolding or building = equipment that is currently stored in this car park area. Once you have arr= ived and unloaded your vehicle and you would like to use this parking, you = will need to go around the block and enter Wetheril St from Norton St (one = way) as you pass the front of the Administration building on the right of t= he street, there is a small driveway at the end of the building which leads= in to the under building parking. The spaces are narrow, please take care = to park within the lines and be cautious of any other vehicles that are par= ked in there - some times our staff work on weekends and can park in side t= here too. The gate to this car park will be open from 8.30am until 11am and= again from 3pm until the stalls have cleared. If you need to access your c= ar at any other time, please ask one of the Leichhardt Council staff to esc= ort you and give you access. Please arrive at the following times: 8.30am - Solar Bright Aus, Sassy Treats 9am - Yoga in Daily Life, Solar Shop Aus, Greenway, Funk you Up, Naturally = Gifted, Omniscents, Tri Nature 9.30am - VISY, Me Too Please, Tankworks, 10am - Ciao Magazine, Friends of Maliana, CCBR, Clothing Exchange, GM Enter= prises/ Bioplates, Cranks 10.30am - St John Ambulance, Cancer Council, Face Painting, Cafe Lovers, Go= Get Performers - Mic will be arriving one hour before performance time, we have plenty of sp= ace for you to set up in prior to the performance. All others, please ensur= e you arrive 15 - 30 mins before your performance time. Access to the stage= is through the Town Hall using the entry from the Marion St car park which= has Cafe Lovers outside it. Access to the stage is up a small set of stair= s between the Ciao stand and the stage. I am unsure exactly where the AV de= sk will be set at this stage. Please call Alex Dunkley 0400 107 688 on appr= oach and she can meet you at the side door. I will attempt to keep the car = spaces along the side of the Town Hall available for your cars throughout t= he day - I'll likely use Sulo bins, please feel free to rearrange them arou= nd your parking. For Circus Solarus - we have an office for you to change i= n and will try to keep a park for you - arrival at 11am. Presenters/ Workshops/ Art and book Swap - Talks that were at the dairy are in Chambers at the top of the stairs. Ther= e are chairs for people to use, we have put in a small white board for you = as well and there is table space. For Anna Rose and Transition Town I imagi= ne you won't have any equipment to take up stairs, you can enter through th= e Town Hall and walk up stairs. For Bush tucker, Emma Daniels and the Rever= se garbage you'll all likely need to use the lift to get your equipment up = stairs. Best entry for this is the disabled access on Marion St (closer to = Norton St than the car park) Closest park, if it's available is on Marion S= t in front of the bus stop. Alternately stop temporarily in the bus stops t= o unload and then relocate your car. Please call Tahlia Ross 0415 182 252 o= n approach for her to unlock/ or open the door for you (you walk either bet= ween two pillars or up a winding ramp and then to the door - just next to t= he green lawn of the front of the hall on the corner of Norton). Reverse ga= rbage you are in the Councillors room on the first landing up the stairs (o= r about 5 stairs down from the top, use the lift) - 9am arrival time, use t= he Marion St door, ask your taxi to stop in the bus zone should work best. = I will try to keep some parking for all others along the side of the Town H= all in the Marion St car park (hopefully blocked with Sulo bins - feel free= to move them for your car). Art/ Book Swap you are in the Supper Room at t= he top of the stairs, Marion St side/ disabled entrance is probably best fo= r you all too. Looks like I will unlock the side Marion St door for the day= so you all have access. I hope I've covered everything and emailed everyone. Please feel free to email me tonight, I'll be in by about 6.30am tomorrow (= yay) or you can call my mobile this evening too if there are pressing matte= rs.
