PrologueTeam chat: Renaissance Frolicke, Six Months Before Opening
Aja: I know we’ve kept Courtly Splendor and Dragon’s Forge on opposite sides of the site because they’re our two highest-rated vendors, yadda yadda, but I can’t take the pining anymore
Felice: OMG so much pining
Roger: So. Much.
Mark: if we put them on the same side there’ll be a never-ending traffic jam
Felice: how about in the middle?
Mark: whut
Felice: behind the main stage, side by side
Aja: ooh yeah give people something to browse while they’re waiting for the next show
Roger: could people use the stage’s dressing area to try s**t on?
Mark: favoritism guys
Aja: revenue ‘guys,’ also ‘guys’ is an exclusionary term
Mark: ‘people’
Felice: don’t be a dick
Roger: it wouldn’t kill us to shake up the layout. If CS and DF are both at center site, those spots on the outer ring open up for games or food vendors
Aja: good point!
Felice: and if being jammed up against each other doesn’t solve the situation, we can always split them up again next year
Mark: for all we know they enjoy the pining
Roger: Hahahaha
Mark: if anyone catches them f*****g in the dressing area, you’re all in big trouble

Team chat: Renaissance Frolicke, Three Months Before Opening
Mark: the quote for moving the main stage [link]
Roger: holy shit
Felice: eeek
Aja: good thing we use straw bales instead of an actual fence
Mark: [frowny face]
Roger: we can afford it though right?
Mark: yes
Mark: fire department said ‘this is better’
Felice: even though it’s farther from main entrance??
Mark: that’s what I said
Roger: oh because of truck access each side of bleachers?
Mark: they like those gaps if we ever have to move people out the back
Aja: cross fingers
Aja: thx for handling, Mark [smiley face]
Felice: can’t wait to see what happens!!
Roger: LOL

Team chat: Renaissance Frolicke, One Month Before Opening
Roger: thoughts on yesterday’s site visit?
Felice: I love the way it smells when the straw bales are fresh
Aja: yessss
Felice: also the new pergolas for the picnic stages are really pretty
Roger: thanks!
Felice: [smiley face]
Mark: I think the shade sails should be counted in acreage now not square footage
Aja: those things are literally life savers. Also: main stage area rocks!
Mark: thanks, was a ton of work but I like how everything funnels up that way now. All our vendors confirmed?
Aja: yep! Packages went out!
Roger: water & sanitation are locked. Still a few entertainers to confirm
Felice: volunteers have all been referred for their costume. Medics are booked
Mark: great work, team!
