Bill Larson  Took care of everything that went on in the cave:  tending to actors, picking up their food, training the guides, setting up props and taking down.   Spent both nights supervising things in the cave, helping when needed.  Also got donations of actor’s food for two nights, donation of 100 glow sticks and at least 10 pumpkins for event.  He let us use his two-way radios, help set up and take down props in cave.  Creator of Clarksvilleonline.com, which promoted the event.
