Many of these roles can be filled by the same person, if there is someone willing, and it is perfectly possible to combine a number of these.

			The logistics to site from the baronial lockup is the hardest part these days.
			* Logistics/transport - food
			We can almost completely avoid a need to transport food now that we are getting deliveries via Bidvest. There has been a need to buy some food from Countdown, and there may be a need to move pre-bought Feast food out to fight, but we hope to require less transport of food since a Countdown is due to open in Amberley before CF2015.
	* Marshal in Charge		* Marshal in Charge
			Given the size of the event, and the need to have marshals for each discipline, I recommend putting each discipline in charge of its own marshalls, but they will need to be arranged by someone.

			Often this can be delegated to the Baronial Herald, but it must be confirmed.
	* Day steward		* Day steward
			If there won't be a steward available in case of emergencies, then there will need to be someone delegated as a day steward. If you need a day off, then use them.
	* Night steward		* Night steward
			Delegating someone to be in charge of anything that comes up at night is absolutely necessary. Master Bernard Sterling has been happy to fill this role in recent years.

			Gate will probably want to be a restricted chore, or a chore assigned to at least 2 people. See further at [[CF_Gate]]
			* Feast Servers
			Having at least some experienced feast servers will help the event run smoothly. It would be ideal to have people get experience at smaller events, and you may want to assign these chores in advance.
			* Dedicated Packdown - Storage Container
			If we want to ensure best use of space in the storage container, we'll need to have someone out there, to catalogue what is going in, make sure it is labelled correctly, and place it in the container for best use of space. Recommendation from CF2014 team is to take Lord Bjorn up on his offer to do this, and allocate 3 chore slots as packing down Bjorn's belongings on the Sunday of Faire.

* Meal plan
* Feast
* Logistics/transport – gear and meal/feast ingredients to site
* Marshal in Charge
* Herald in Charge
* Day steward
* Night steward
* A&S – workshops, display
* B&B will typically take care of Court and Royal/visiting-Baronage liaison. For many reasons, they will want to know who is coming, early and often.
