Hi Nicole, I’m stoked you’re going to GCUC this year! I hope it is awesome for you, and I look forward to meeting you there. I’m not sure what you are asking, would you like to sign up to lead a tour, or to go on a tour? If you’re wanting to sign up to go on a tour, you do that through the GCUC website. If you’re wanting to sign up to lead a tour, I’m the one to speak with!
