2022 Fall Fest Gatekeepers

GATE KEEPERS The Gate Keepers responsibilities are split into three categories: Artisan Setup, Monitor Open & Close of Fest, and Tear Down. Gate Keepers stage the Artisans at each gate for entry into the Fest and work with the Block Captains to coordinate Artisan entrance for setup. Artisan setup is split into two phases. The first phase takes place Friday afternoon / evening, from 4-8pm, with about half of the Artisans being let in. The second phase takes place Saturday morning, from 4-9am, where the second half of the Artisans are let in. This is a great experience for Fall Fest volunteers as you literally get to see the Fest come to life. Gate Keepers work closely with the Block Captains to coordinate which Artisans get in and when. They stage the vehicles and manage the flow of traffic. This is also a great opportunity to briefly talk with Artisans about the Fest and calm their nerves as they wait to get in. SCHEDULE: Shifts of 1.5- to 6-hour shifts SUPERVISED BY: Gate Keeper Chair Jeremy Kalisz
