Hi, I am interested in working in the booth, but do I have to stay more than one day? If so I can work for two days. Bobby On Friday, July 6, 2018, 12:41:23 AM EDT, Evan Koblentz via vcf-midatlantic <vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
VCF is in a bind for HOPE.
Our plan was to demonstrate hacks for vintage computers. I'm planning to do an Apple II section, Jeff B. planned for the C-64 side, and Dean was considering Atari/Tandy portions.
Tonight I found out that Jeff decided not to go and Dean has a schedule conflict.
That means we have two problems.
1. It would be lame if our entire demo is just me (and possibly Mouse).
2. VCF bought a couple of tickets already. If they don't get used, then they go to waste. They are expensive!
So, bottom line, there are a couple of tickets available FOR FREE in exchange for contributing to / working our booth. We also have a hotel room there with two beds, so you have a free place to stay overnight.
The catch? I urgently need FIRM COMMITMENTS. (As I've said with other requests through the years, put yourself in my shoes -- it's incredibly frustrating when there are a bunch of replies saying, "Wish I could, sorry" -- that doesn't help anyone -- or when people take advantage of the offer for a free ticket and then don't wind up helping much at our table. It's happened a couple of times.)
