 Leave 1 rectangular plastic table up, on the street side near the door to the stairs. If any other rectangular plastic tables are set up, fold them up and lean them on the wall up by the stage, on the right. There is 1 heavier wooden rectangular table, which is normally leaned on the wall at the back of the stage, to the right, in back of where the piano is stored. If it is out on the dance floor, I suggest putting it away. If any of the 8 round tables are set up, put them away on the rolling table rack out on the stairway landing.  There should be chairs set up all along the left side wall - set them up if not.  If there are chairs set up elsewhere on the dance floor, put them away. Leave 1 rectangular plastic table up, on the street side near the door to the stairs.
