🧭 Placement Crew

Also referred to as "Gracer" (Greeter+Placement), these positions are responsible for the layout of the village on the assigned real estate on the playa in such a way that the needs of the individual villagers are met to the extent possible while maintaining a welcoming atmosphere from the road.

This generally includes ensuring that persons who need RV service can be accommodated, persons leaving early can access the exit roads, generators aren't located next to tents, women who wish to be with other women can do so, old friends get placed next to those they wish to see, those arriving late have space, emergency space exists, and that the camp is otherwise laid out in a harmonious and efficient manner.

The people holding these positions may need to be available for Set-Up Week. They work closely with the Borg Liaison, Hospitality, Builder, and others to ensure a functional space. They assure incoming Villagers are greeted during the event to assure they set up in a designated spot. This person should ensure that other gracers are trained in all aspects of the position and have all the necessary information to assist, especially during event week.
