Display Space Information
and Request Form
The Synod
Assembly displays will be located in the College Center.
You will find them in the Snack Bar Area which is directly
across from Augustana's bookstore. In order to lift up the very
important work of these fine ministries, we have intentionally
scheduled a time on our agenda (Friday, June 15, beginning at
3:40 p.m.) to visit these displays. Please take the time to
do this as there is always valuable information available and
these groups go to a lot of work in order to inform you of the
work of the Church.
DATE: March 1, 2007
TO: Northern Illinois Synod Committees, Institutions/Agencies
FROM: Sandra J. Musch
Assistant to the
Bishop/
Synod Assembly
Co-chairperson
SUBJECT: Northern Illinois Synod Assembly Displays
As Co-chairperson of the Northern Illinois Synod Assembly which
will be held June 15-16, 2007, at
Augustana College in Rock
Island, Illinois, I would like to announce that it is time to
reserve display space and a table at our upcoming Synod
Assembly.
As we have done in past years, the displays will be located in
the Snack Bar Area of the College Center (directly across from
Augustana’s bookstore). Because the work of our Synod Committees
and Institutions/Agencies is so important, we have provided a
time in the Synod Assembly Agenda for voting members and
visitors to visit the display space area. In addition to
encouraging our voting members and visitors to visit the display
area during the designated time, we will continually make
announcements as a reminder that the Synod Committees and
Institutions/Agencies will have materials on display in the
College Center snack bar area. Due to limitations in available
space we are allowing no more than one (1) table per display.
Please take the time now to consider if you will need display
space, a table, electrical outlet, and/or any other materials.
An important piece of information which you need to be aware of
is the fact that tables are assigned and prepared ahead of time
to accommodate requests, and when someone does not show up it
causes great confusion. Therefore, unless you have notified us
ahead of time, if you have not shown up by Friday noon (June
15), the table assigned to you will be removed, to allow more
space for others.
Also, when you arrive to set up your display and if you see an
empty table, please do not move your display or add on to your
display. Please just leave the empty table there until after
lunch when we will make arrangements to have it removed.
A golf cart will shuttle display materials from the drop off
circle in front of Carlsson Hall, just west of Centennial Hall
on Seventh Avenue, to the College Center.
The College Center loading dock may be another area where you
wish to unload/load your display materials. The dock area is
located directly behind the College Center on the west side of
38th Street. The dock area space is small so we request that
only two (2) vehicles be in the area at one time and that all
vehicles be removed immediately after unloading/loading.
Assistance will be offered at the dock site to the display area,
if needed. A few parking spaces may be available in the parking
lot to the east of 38th Street.
Printed signs will assist you in locating your designated table
and space. Doors will open at 8 a.m. Friday, June 15, to allow
displays to be setup. We are asking that your display be in
place by 9:30 a.m. and dismantled no later than 4 p.m. on
Saturday, June 16.
If you wish to reserve space, please either use the form below
or print this form
and mail to Northern
Illinois Synod, Attention: Judi Fields, 103 West State Street,
Rockford, Illinois 61101-1105 by May 15, 2007.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to
contact me.
