Pick up the canvas. Fill out and sign the rental form and leave check.

Putting the canvas out:


1. Clean the floor so that the back of the labyrinth doesn't get dirty.
2. Set the canvas out where you want it.
3. Smooth it out.
4. Sweep it if there is need. (Jill will provide a special broom to be used only on the labyrinth.)
5. Take a minute to notice how beautiful the labyrinth is and to pray for the labyrinth event.

Putting the labyrinth away:


1. Sweep the labyrinth off with the broom dedicated to labyrinth care.
2. Fold the canvas in any way that makes sense to you. It is good for the canvas to be folded in different ways at different times as it helps to minimize creases.
3. As you are folding it, sweep newly exposed bottom of the canvas as necessary.
4. Smooth out as you go.
5. Put it back in the container it came in, along with anything else that came with it.
