I'll take the evening event planning if you'd like. With the symposium experience at Sun, this would be a breeze, though, of course, I'd like some help!!

because I'm new to Stargate, I can't help with the speeches, but I can greet and organize events and help with the School-wide Carnival.

I changed the breakfast time to what we discussed, as to not start too early. June
