Reminders for Volunteers

• Anticipate traffic and parking delays on weekends and evenings, but there are no sporting events scheduled during the fair.
• Parking is free in all fairgrounds lots. Details about parking are not complete yet. More will follow when we know more, but it will not likely be in the usual location.
• The booth is inside the NC Green tent near entrance gate 11 off of Blue Ridge Rd. near the Vet School.
• Wear comfortable shoes, jeans or other comfortable pants and the State Fair shirt, which we will provide.
• Safety is paramount. Make sure people viewing demonstrations stand 1 foot back from the demonstration table. If the demonstration involves only water, cereal or the butterflies, you do not need to wear goggles. For all else, wear goggles.
• You are representing the American Chemical Society. For any question they might have, you may direct them to the website or one of the subcommittee members.
• There are wallet-sized periodic tables with the url of the NC ACS website. Distribute these freely up to about 600/day distributed evening through out the day.
