[Toraerie] WW Waterbearing and Resources - a plea.

[Peregrine]

Hello all. 

We've just completed the staff walkthrough for the new WW site. We've 
confirmed where the martial activities fields will be, and we could really 
use your help.

The site is larger than NCN, and much more spread out. We will have 
running water for waterbearing, but getting the coolers to where they need 
to be and keeping them filled is going to be an ongoing issue. These are 
not only the coolers for the fighters but the ones which will be around 
the populace space as well. 

We are really going to need help with waterbearing, significantly moreso 
than the last couple years, as well as with Resources, because this site 
is big and getting things from point A to point B will take more time - 
the more bodies, the less trips and the lighter the load. 

Right now, there are NO volunteers signed up for Waterbearing at all.

I know people are waiting for schedules to be finalized and we're getting 
them online as fast as possible. It looks like from 10-4 is going to be 
when most of the heavy and rapier tourneys happen. This is also going to 
be the hottest time of the day. If people could please dedicate a couple 
hours during this time to help us keep the water coolers filled, it would 
be very much appreciated. 

Staying hydrated will be very important for everyone. As some people 
have noted - this will be Serengeti style camping. It's a flat field 
- there is no shade in the camping area at all. Right now, I can 
tell you that ice will be available for sale on site, that we have running 
water for waterbearing, and that there is limited water available at 
central points in the campground. Nobody will be allowed to run hoses from 
the water in the campground, so please plan on bringing something to tote 
water back to your camp with or bringing enough bottled water to see you 
through the weekend.

We will have a more in-depth update for you soon. This has been a huge 
undertaking with a very short deadline, and we're moving on things as fast 
as we can. Thank you for your continued patience and understanding. 

-The Autocrat Team.
