field day preparation / Questions
Early guestimation on Milliways travellers for WHY will be ~200
Finance \ Content \ Volunteer \ Moebelhaus \ Power
As already known; We are very interested in running our own stage like at CCCamp23 but under a 'Cyber Circus' theme.
We have read the minutes of the WHY x Liquicity orga meeting here and were delighted to see a very brief mention of mcfly's idea linked to Liquicity's Mirror Palace (or spiegeltent) and we would love to explore this idea further.
- May we run/organize a stage?
- does WHY orga take care of the tent (Financials\Teardown\Rental etc)?
- can/must we take anything into consideration?
- If shared financials, we'll need to discuss numbers \ sponsorship ASAP.
- May we assemble our own content and stage teams for which we already have an experienced group of people?
- May we hook into WHY's volunteering system as normal?
- This to ensure gaps, if any, are covered, and to offer
- Power requirements and timelines
- TBD
- Furniture requirements and timelines
- TBD
- See last year's pricelist for indication

Terrain \ Village \ Moebelhaus \ Volunteer \ Power
- May we have dedicated water access for the Milliways village or minimum IBC service for our kitchen?
- Stage Dependancy for location: At CCC and EMF, the Milliways Village is usually elongated, catering to travellers who intentionally camp closer to the party as well as offering a "quiet" (in so far as you can call it quiet) side of the village.
- Can we organise the Milliways Village in proximity to the stage but with the option for a quiet "end"?
- are we allowed to run a makerboat race on the Canal? :-)
- May we hook into WHY's volunteering system for our kitchen?
- We are interested in running our own infodesk, any concerns?
- Like at other events, we assume small, pre-registered group(s) can be on-site for Days -1 + 0 and Days 6 + 7 - is this correct?
- While we doubt later is necessary (teardown typically faster than buildup) if earlier is possible, we'd like to know (dome + deco)
