Do you have an area dedicated as an event space? Are there times when events were held within the stacks? Did this ever include food and beverage? Did you have to move or take down any stack areas? Did this go well? I’d like to hear all experiences, positive and negative. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I thank you in advance for your insight and advice you can provide.
