      T-Shirt Team: 
      This team will help organize the t-shirt trailer, unload/move heavy boxes, take payments & set-up/breakdown stations prior to start and end of festival days. We need ten people each day--with breaks throughout the day. This is a very busy station during the festival so we do not split up shifts. Email plippard@brunswickcountychamber.org if you have questions about this area or the shifts. There will be a meeting prior to the event to go over all details to make this a successful t-shirt team!
