hmm, i wonder at whic hpoint. there was a point around 4 or so when there were a lot of people hanging out in the kitchen, andthere was mroe then enough helpers, but throughout msot of hte day more hands always better. one of hte things i found useful to remember is that instead of aproaching peope ahaead of time and vaguely tellignthem you are willign to help, i needed to go up to them day of event and offer my help there and then. that way it was more concrete and availible, and they usually took me up on the offer. it is very easy to feel excluded at SCA events as it looks liek everyoen knows everyoen else and has no time for you. it is usually not true though, you just either need to offer your help tothe peopel who are busy or fidn peopel who are not busy... but, as someoen mentioned above, it takes a while to become part of hte groups sometimes, and it is much harder to do it if you used ot be part of the group and then moved awy for a time. give us time to get to knwo you again, or for the first time in some cases, and it will all be good :)
