As the Event Control Centre (ECC) Coordinator – or “Control” to everyone on our radio net – I serve as the central nervous system for the FollyFest operation. The ECC is based in The Pump House on the Market Square.
Myself and the team around me including our Chief Marshall and all the volunteers monitor our event space, the surrounding traffic management and road closure points, all real-time communications between team members, and direct security, safety, and operational teams to wherever they are needed to ensure FollyFest runs smoothly from start to finish.
