I'd like to suggest reconsidering the idea of a key signing party. It is
somewhat human nature to get careless when performing the same operation
repetitively. There have been cases in the past where keysigning parties
were used as venues for social engineering to get people to sign keys they
shouldn't have.
Instead of a key signing party, I'd suggest a gathering early in the week
to do training on proper key signing procedures (most particularly ID
verification requirements). From there, people will be properly equipped
to do it on their own in a low key, safe way.
