If there are concerns about security, the VCC Lead should detail an additional volunteer to simply keep watch (and do nothing else). Most prospective thieves will be discouraged when it's clear that someone is keeping an eye out.

Finally, if the event takes place at night for any duration, be prepared with lights. Good lighting creates a defensive area, is a psychological deterrent to criminal intent, and creates a safer space overall. 


Remember that safety is the number one priority. VCC staff should not risk physical confrontations to prevent a theft. Instead, radio the incident in to the ECC to request help from nearby police officers.
