Behind the Scenes

Friday was "moving" day, as in move all the boxes into the Symposium and Staff office. We stopped counting at 87 boxes. Luckily, we had Alvin Richardson, an OLI Board Member and Terry Ludban, the Chairman of the Symposium Committee to do the heavy lifting.

Next, it was time to get those all important registration packets and tickets ready for around 300 attendees. Marmie Edwards, VP of Communications for OLI and Carol Steckbeck, OLI Consultant and Symposium Manager, carefully made sure each attendee got their correct tickets for different events.


Well, it definately isn't all pretty - and this hard working group of volunteers did a great job of turning the Symposium Office into...well...a disaster. But - it was definately worth it. They stuffed 300 "goodie" bags for the attendees in record time. Behind-the-Scenes...the hard work that just doesn't get a great deal of recognition...thank you Symposium volunteers!
