Checking the map

Two scouts from Troop 29 consult the layout map for the exhibit tables. They want to put the tables in the right place the first time.

Unstacking

Walker Kelly (far left) directs traffic as Boy Scouts unstack tables and carry them to where they’re needed.

Positioning

Boy Scouts erect tables and carefully position them, while Walker Kelly (far right) directs traffic.

Covering A

Heather Adams (maroon shirt, roll of plastic) instructs Washington HS volunteers (Go Warriors!) in how to cover the tables.

We cover the tables with plastic to provide an attractive and splinter-free surface for the exhibits.

Covering B :)

Washington HS volunteers unroll the plastic to cover the table.

Covering C

Washington HS volunteers cut the plastic cover to length.

Skirting

Here Washington HS volunteers are spreading a blue skirt (visible left) around the table and have started stapling it.

The skirts make the tables look better and let the students hide stuff underneath.

Marking the boundaries A

The exhibit tables are 8 feet long; most exhibits are allowed 4 feet of table. Otto Rajtora, leader of Troop 29, uses a drywall T-square, 4 feet long, to measure the mid-point of this table.…

Marking the boundaries B :)

… then he turns the T-square and uses it as a straight-edge to mark the boundary.

Numbering

Linda and Walker Kelly apply exhibit numbers to the tables.
