Want to spend a day behind the scenes?

24. Mar 01:00 / Marielle H. Akselsen

As always, you can apply for a temporary position in the crew -- first come, first serve.

For the third year in a row, there will be a Crew for a day program at TG. As a CFAD participant, you will get to spend time in multiple crews, giving you a unique opportunity to find out if you would enjoy being a part of the TG crew.
We met with Ingvild Myhre, this year's CFAD coordinator. “CFAD lets participants experience how the crew works and what happens behind the scenes at TG,” she says. “The day they are crew, they eat with us and get treated as crew.”

As an applicant you can choose what crews to test your skills in, and this year most crews will accept participants. “We try to take into account knowledge, experience and interest”, Ingvild assures us.

If you want to apply for crew for a day, send an e-mail to cfad@gathering.org where you introduce yourself and explain:

- Why you will be a great fit for the TG crew!
- What crews you want to apply for (up to five), in preferred order.

As some of the crews require special skills or experience, you should also include such skills, if applicable. This will make it easier for us to put you in the crews you want.

The application deadline is Monday, April 6th, at midday (12:00). After this, we will start replying to applicants -- you will get an answer no later than the end of Wednesday, April 8th.

Since positions are given out on a first come, first serve basis, you should send in your applications as soon as possible.
