I would like to second that and say: Jon and Phoebe - Thank you so much for your dedication and the hard work to make another Maker Faire event successful! The booth set-up was professional and welcoming. You made sure that volunteers can focus talking to the visitors. I had fun taking the morning shift on Sunday and talking to the visitors.
