Where To Get Materials:
- Chairs and tables onsite
- Everything else from GC HQ
Handout Instructions: The interaction should go something like:
LAB ASSISTANT:
Good morning. I see you're on our exclusive guest list. Have you completed your non-disclosure agreement and liability waiver?
VISITOR:
Yes, here it is.
The visitor hands the form to the lab assistant, who puts it in the waiver pile.
LAB ASSISTANT:
Then, here are your security badges. Also please each take a lanyard from that pile over there to insert your badge into. Make sure to have your badge on display at all times. Welcome to Trenchwood Institute. Prepare to be amazed! Please step over to one of our photographers so that they may record your participation in this historic event for all posterity.
Site Close Down:
- Make sure all the signed waivers get to Erik Stuart eventually
- Join the presentation inside 1.01 Introductory Lecture 1
- Return your name badge(s) and lanyard to GC HQ at the end of your shift
Other Instructions:
- Stay in character.

- Erik and Ellen and other core GC members will be setting up the presentation inside.
