[sudo-discuss] [omni-discuss] [Mesh] Omni at Temescal Street Fair this Sunday?

Wed Jun 7 21:50:33 PDT 2017

Hey Jose,

I'm coordinating the Omni presence with the Business Improvement District
and the Temescal Street Fair contractor. Looks like we'll have a presence
in various fashions with CCL, BAAM, ABDC, FNB, SUDO, Omni overall, and now
CSC.

We'll be setting up at roughly the corner of 48th and Telegraph with some
folks perhaps starting setup at 9am.

I take it you need a single table and will primarily talk to the public and
distribute information. Please let me know of any other details like
activities or whatnot and your needs, and any other questions you may have.

For the extent of the fair planning if you need to communicate or
coordinate with me please continue in writing with email for clarity,
especially at this late date.

Thanks Ken
