Heyall,

**Tables are from Omni whatever we have and best format that you need.

The arrangements that I made with the Business Improvement District and the fair contractor is that we provide all our infrastructure and then they don't have to provide and charge us which is why we can do this for free instead of booth fees.

**Some Omnifolks are going to be setting up as early as 9am. As long as you are setup and ready by noon start time that should be fine. Takedown starts at 6 closing and likely happen pretty quickly. Not sure what time they officially open the street to traffic but I would imagine around an hour after closing if last year's fair is any indication.

**Looks like we can have an outlet from one of the businesses for free and put a power strip on it for all Omnier's needs. Which should be rather minor except when CCL is doing a casting demo and has to heat a low temp metal. Other draws would be turned off temporarily during the periodic casting demos. As a backup plan CCL may be doing the heating at Omni and bring the molten metal over that way. Omni/CCL/BAAM/SUDO provides their own extension cords and other infrastructure.

You can represent your group to the public however you like whether it is a project of SUDO per se or distinguished independently, but it is all under the umbrella of Omni as far as the BID and Fair contractor are concerned.

Thanks Ken

Hi Jenny and everybody,

Thanks for passing along this info. We are definitely interested in having a peoplesopen.net table at the Temesecal Street Fair. After a brainstorming meeting we have a few logistical questions:

**do we need to bring a table or are tables provided?

**when can we begin setup? 11am?

**what is the electricity/power situation?

I will send along meeting notes and other information regarding preparations to the mesh list. I'm not sure if sudoroom proper has any plans of having a table.

Adding the mesh list, as this would be a great opportunity for neighborhood outreach, and we could set up some of the hardware and promote our next BYOI (build your own internet) workshop on July 1st.

Unfortunately, Marc and I can't help to coordinate as we're out of town until the 27th, but I believe Grant said he'd be down, and maybe others would be interested?

I like the 'take stuff apart' idea, Patrik :)

SUDO never said one way or the other but it seemed like they were probably not going to participate or......

One of the ideas suggested at one of the Sudo meetings last week was to just have a table full of ewaste gear, screw drivers, pliers and hot glue, for kids to take stuff apart and put it back together again. That always used to be a very popular activity at Maker Faire. (They stopped doing that a few years ago - possibly out of liability concerns: sharp edges, lead solders, you name it...)

Was Sudo or other groups at Omni planning to have a table at the Temescal Street Fair this Sunday? This is a great opportunity to reach out to our immediate neighborhood in a very visible fashion.

CCL will be there with at least a table or two, and it sounds like BAAM may have up to five mushroomy tables as well.

We were offered free space to exhibit at the Fair, but I am not sure exactly where our tables will be - somewhere at the intersection of 48th and Telegraph - or how much total space we will have available. I believe Ken Litchfield has been our main contact person for those kinds of logistics.
