During show set-up, the movers may be asked to help assemble the “shell” of the booth, mostly gridwall, and/or assist in setting up some of the inventory items. You’ll drive back to Chicago that afternoon. Some items will have to go back to the B3 studio and then you will be required to drop the U-Haul off at the U-Haul facility
We will also need someone to pick up a U-Haul in Chicago at 12:00 noon on Sunday June 10th. The driver and helper will assist with show tear down, loading the truck in Milwaukee and unloading back at B3. The driver will then return the truck to the U-Haul facility.

Sunday, June 10 — 2:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m. (hours might be less, depending on how fast we tear down. Hours include driving from Chicago to Milwaukee and back.)
