[Deptheads] Sign-in Sheets Event Data

[Strategicon Department Heads]

I use Excel. I copy and paste the info from the sign-in sheets page, and
that auto-populates all my sign in sheets and layout sheets. I have worked
in a couple user modifiable things like a checkbox for ‘all materials
provided’, ‘family friendly’, and Table number so I can modify everything
in one easy place. Export as pdf and done.
