Post Origins

From Steven Petrick:

After Origins clean-up continues. Products that returned to the warehouse from the Origins events have been inventoried and are now being put back into stock. While we do not have to go to Origins again for a year, we have to inventory and put into storage all the equipment that we use to run the events and operate the booth so that they are readily accessible for the next year. This way we save time in that we will not be trying to find the shelving units to the booth display; we will know right where they are stored. We also inventory the materials we use for the various tournaments, disposing of those that are no longer useable and making notes about what will have to be replaced. All the radios we use to maintain communications between the tournaments, the various judges, and the booth, are checked back in (together with their associated chargers) and all batteries are removed (to make sure they do not self-destruct and destroy the radios in the coming year). The radios and batteries, like the rest of the Origins specific materials are all put away in specific locations so that they can be easily accessed the next year.
As a bonus, the items are not becoming office or warehouse clutter which could be easily damaged. Instead, they are in their assigned places, all ready to be packed in the vehicle for departure to Origins next year.
