			=== Barker Duties ===

			* Be loud. Get people into MOMM to look around just in case; it's impressive how many people don't realize they lost an item until they see it displayed on a MOMM shelf.
			* Because people will ask: No, they can't take things that aren't theirs even thought it's the end of exodus. We continue to return items after the event.

			=== Lost & Found Items ===

			* Unless the sky/ground is too wet to make this possible, please lay out or hang any wet items to dry.
			* Remove items from bins and try to make everything visible from the path. With this shift, MOMM's goal changes from "Make lost items art!" to "Make it easy for people to find their lost stuff."
			* If you have time, folding clothes, rinsing gross dishes, checking for name labels, etc. is helpful but not necessary.

			=== Small MOMM Infrastructure ===

			* There will be a supplies bin in the back of MOMM where you can neatly store small items such as lights, whiteboards, etc.
			* Remove batteries from anything battery operated before storing.
			* Take down the lights, please please please making sure to neatly coil the fairy lights.
			* Stack the whiteboards.
			* Untie markers and erasers and put them into ziplock bags.
			* Keep bins in a separate pile from the large infrastructure; an LNT core lead will handle these.

			=== '''Large MOMM Infrastructure''' ===

			* '''Shelves:''' All the shelving breaks down flat. Look in the supplies bin for rope to tie together similarly shaped pieces of wood for easy transportation.
			* '''Easy up:''' Take down the easy up. Its bag should be in the supplies bin.
			* '''Val (the safe):''' Someone with a code will do a final check of Val, the valuables safe.
			* All large infrastructure should be placed in one pile to be picked up by a Polaris.

		== '''Field Sweep Leader (Exodus or Late Crew)''' ==
		Aka herder of cats: Wrangle a bunch of us into a straight-ish line and lead us across a field looking for shiny things in the grass. Weirdly meditative, and also a lot like the game "Red Light Green Light." Prior field sweep experience is helpful but not required, and an LNT core lead will be there to help out as well. We sweep the bug field in the afternoon of exodus day, and the parking lots the following day during land sweep/late crew.

		Shift timing aligns with the regular field sweep crew and land sweep crew shifts.
