Hi all.
Fundraising for the IT Expo. Since AKLUG's not going to be of sufficient
status to offer tax-deductible donations, probably the best way to raise
the $600 is to find a generous donor in the community. Who would
potentially benefit from the expansion of AKLUG? Or, find someone you
(that's the collective you) know who would be willing to foot the bill.
At the very least, I would imagine that the members of this list might see
it as worthwhile to give to the cause? Perhaps AKLUG can raise half
internally and get a match from the money in town.

PS. I've attended the expo for the last two years and sat in on Chris'
Samba presentation last year. Though the expo is rather small here, its
importance far eclipses its physical presence.
