The best happenings @Nowhere 2008

The Nowhere mailing list is starting to give exciting and/or interesting news. Here they are.

Nowhere Poker Party (Texas Hold'em: wow!)
The first Nowhere Poker party will become a reality! Hope we could do that the friday in the center camp. For the moment, just 40 people maximum in a Texas Holdh'em no limit poker party (double shoot out). To suscribe, let's go to information office and ask Ed. Of course, it's free, but you need to come with a funny hat and 2 beers as a subscription.
More information: Ed, in the Arockalypse Camp.


Speakers of Different languages... WE WANT YOU!
We're looking for a few good women and men who can give a hand (or a pair of lips) interpreting and translating for the team. We need Spanish speakers right away to help out in various situations, but we would love to get a list of on-site linguists (or just casual French, Spanish, German, Italian and... well, why not.. Klingon speakers) who would be willing to help out if
necessary.
Stop by the information desk when you arrive at Nowhere and let us know who you are!

Join the Volunteer Crew at the Gate!
It is one of the most fun volunteering opportunities as you are the first faces that people see when they arrive. You get to give the new arrivals the proper Nowhere greeting, you have the honour of opening the gate itself and get to be the people who set the tone of excitement and
wonder from the first. We can promise you shade, comfort, cold beers, at least 7 years good karma and more just for putting your name down for a shift and rocking up for it. The Gate Crew will be putting up a board on site with all available shifts. All you need to do is put your name down for the times you want to do, and remember, the more shifts you do, the more cold beers and good karma youget. We made a deal with the right people.
