[NBLUG/talk] State of the LUG (Talk post for discussion)

[Alan Bloom]

Before you get too far you should check what the Sonoma County Fair 
charges for a booth.  Many years ago they used to offer reduced rates 
for non-profit organizations, but I believe they quite doing that a long 
time ago.  You may find that it is too expensive to consider.

Another possibility is to partner with another organization that already 
has a booth.  The local ham club did that one year with the Sheriff's 
department.
