Team leaders are

Sasha Shamilov - Lighting and Electrical
Grant Campbell - Construction
Helen Braithwaite - Front of House

Would someone like to host and organise the post Ellerslie wrap party
to thank all the people who helped maybe for weekend of 26-28 March.
It could be a BBQ with a wet weather backup.
And progress this week ...
Set construction at Bunnings was completed last night. There was a
chocky cake for the night fill crew to celebrate. There is still odd
bits to do like scavange and stockpile demo timber.
Asheber Dereje has kindly agreed to record voice overs for the filmed
programmes.
A load of working lab equipment has been received from Canterbury
University and has been put in storage for use later in the year.
Initial discussions are underway about future programmes that could be
made based on research being undertaken by scientists at the School of
Biological Sciences.
