i counted two people in wheelchairs.  when the first wheelchair
arrived, another volunteer realized that none of our check-in stations
was accessible and asked if i would facilitate.  fortunately, the
attendee was very good-natured about things, taking the extra
attention in stride and forgoing mention of the elephant in the room.

within a couple hours someone moved a kiosk to a lower table.  i just
want to say thanks to whoever got this done.
