Get Involved
Last year, one organizer had to take on almost all the event tasks, and did so freshly post-surgery, amidst a health crisis, and while receiving a cascade of insults and threats from emails and DM's to the official accounts.This year that same organizer will have to have yet another surgery, still amidst a major health crisis, and is asking the community to step up and volunteer for the roles and tasks necessary to keep the event running.This organizer loves this event and wants to help keep it running but does not wish to take on more roles than they are comfortable with, simultaneously forgoing any personal plans they had/have for the event.If you find yourself with the ability to contribute in any way, please get plugged into the discord and take the initiative to help out.Thank you for reading.
VOLUNTEERING
Most of our organizing happens in discord.
Email us to get connected.

ACCESS INFO
The event is held outdoors. Masks are required and will be provided for those who do not have one. There are masks of different sizes and styles. There will be safety/deescalation team members reminding folks to wear masks. Eating and drinking should happen away from the event, toward the sports fields. Smoking and vaping should be done across the street from the event (mostly to avoid getting tickets). The event will be held on the south eastern side of Irving Park which as far as we know is the most accessible part of the park. There is an accessible bathroom onsite, as well as two inaccessible portopotties.
FUNDRAISER
help Aseel Al-Tawam's family evacuate from Gaza and into Egypt
Her family includes her, her mother and father, her oldest brother Waseem, and her two twin brother Muhammad and Helmy. Muhammad suffers from heart disease. The fundraiser has so far raised enough to evacuate both Muhammad and Aseel, and get Muhammad to a doctor, but most of the family is still in Gaza. They also recently lost a cousin.
Their fundraiser currently sits at $18,752, and their next goal is $20,000 (to bring the rest of the family to Egypt), with an end goal of $25,000.
