Questionnaires for Atlas of Mud 2020-21 (V. 1)

OVERVIEW
We intend to do what we can to help facilitate your being 'on-the-ground' and 'in-person' with us for part of the rehearsal period and performances of Atlas of Mud.  On the organization side, we are making concerted efforts to sort out some good potential options for accommodation/housing, transportation, and related logistics.  It will be in the organization's best interest (and probably yours) if we can find low- or no-cost remedies, and/but we hope to be able to participate financially in costs that may be incurred. 

If all goes as we hope, we should be able to start in-person rehearsals around May 29.  If it goes better than we hope, we may be able to start in-person earlier than that--maybe as soon as May 22.  With Des Moines area residents, we will start as soon as we can.  With guests coming in, we will start as soon as they/you/we can get here.

Here are some questions and strategies we'd like to hear from you about.  
AND THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR WILLINGNESS TO GET ON, STAY ON, AND ROW *THIS BOAT*!!
