[MakeLV] Fwd: Mayfair Opportunity for MAKE Lehigh Valley

Thu May 17 07:43:36 CDT 2012

It looks like a great opportunity. I was originally concerned about setting
up a booth and being around for the entire time that we wouldn't have the
man-power to do that. This looks like a much better fit than I expected. If
we can do it, that'd be great!

Unfortunately, I'm going to be in the Rockies at this time so won't be able
to be very involved.
