  * The volunteers should return to be ready for people coming to the roof for observing. Some visitors skip the lecture and will start showing up for viewing at the time 30 minutes after the lecture begins.
  * Text message the Lecture Captain what the weather conditions are and if you're going to observe.
- * Lately, we have had lecture or roof volunteers lead an initial group of visitors from the lecture hall up to the roof (often the families with children). This has the added benefit of discouraging everyone from mobbing the roof all at once. Taking the group up the elevators to the 13th floor and pointing out where the 3D wall is happening (if that's where the wildcard is set-up) and explaining how to get to the observatory helps prevent the visitors from getting lost and encourages them to experience more than they might otherwise.

  * Have enough trained people (at minimum three) ready for the arrival of the public before opening the doors. Avoid having the public on the roof trying to operate the telescopes themselves.
