Chicago

In Chicago again.  I love coming here for events!  This particular event is at a church that had an event this summer which I worked, and now I am back.  It always warms my heart to see familiar faces, and it is nice knowing what to expect when to arrive at an event.  This event is unique in that we are working this weekend and next weekend, and I get to work both.  I guess that is a perk to being full-time!  

At each shift they have a volunteer shift leader who introduces our orientation and also walks around during the packing shift to make sure everything is going smoothly.  It is really nice to have that extra person who knows what to do.  It makes our job easier!  Some of these shift leaders were volunteers at the summer event and now have stepped into a leadership role at this event; I think that is a really cool aspect of this church, their desire to connect people with their passions and plug them in!  

It is good to be here.
