Friday setup, 6 pm · Elm Street parish hall · drive is Sat Oct 17

Beds on the east wall, where the outlets are

Eight beds, four booths, one loop in and out the south doors.

Drawn to scale from the hall manager's 64 by 40 ft floor sheet. Dashed line: the donor's walk.

Donors walk one loop, about 60 minutes

Check in at A, right inside the south doors.
Wait at B on 24 chairs along the west wall.
Screen in a C booth, curtained, 10 to 15 minutes.
Donate at a D bed, then sit 15 minutes at E before leaving by the same doors.

Set up in this order

Tape the 8 bed outlines first: they set every other distance.
Run cords from outlets 5, 6 and 7 along the wall, taped flat.
Keep 4 ft clear in front of the fire exit (4) and the stage edge.
Booths, then chairs, then the canteen tables from the kitchen (3).

Station	Feet	What goes there

Why eight beds fit and ten do not

Beds are 3 by 7 ft. Two rows of four, heads to the wall, with 3 ft between beds and a 7 ft aisle for the phlebotomists, fill 21 by 21 ft. A fifth row would block either the fire exit's clear zone or the walkway along the south wall.
