This is a resource for scheduling large group tours only. Inreach is the primary organizer of large tours. If they are interested in tours AND volunteering, have them send an email to volunteer@ to be processed by Liane. If they're only requesting a tour send an email to inreach@ with the following info:

  • Date & time requested?
  • Contact info: name/phone number/email
  • Number on tour?
  • Special accommodations?
    • Age? (if school tour)
    • Focused tour? (techy, political, etc.)
  • Volunteering as a group afterward? (direct toward Liane)
  • FG Staff contact: your name here (it's okay, Inreach can reassign)

Then, Inreach or lead planner fills out the rest:

  • Assigned tour guides: who agrees to do it
  • Confirmed? y/n
  • Contact notified of confirmation/denial? y/n, date

    • Block out recycling table in schedule & let recycling know (need safety goggles and gloves for all)
