Hi all! Our illustrious Lyz has been selected to give a talk at [[COLOR="Blue"]CPOSC 2009[/COLOR]]("http://www.cposc.org") in Harrisburg, PA on Oct. 17th.
Besides attending to support her, we'd like to be one of the sponsors and get a table at the event. $100 gets us a Bronze sponsorship, which will give us exposure on their handouts, marketing materials, and a table at the event. I've requested a conference pack, and have listed the event on [[COLOR="Blue"]Conference Appearances[/COLOR]]("https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ConferenceAppearances") .
Here's the rub. We need to drum up $100. Not a large sum of money, but I am asking for some donations to offset the expense. This will be a great event to promote Ubuntu, and to really get the ball rolling in Central Pennsylvania.
Besides Ubuntu and Lyz, there are going to be some great talks, so I would encourage everyone who is close to consider coming to CPOSC!
I've put a Paypal donation button on my [[COLOR="Blue"]CPOSC entry in my blog[/COLOR]]("http://breadthofreality.blogspot.com/2009/08/cposc-2009-and-pennsylvania-loco-team.html"), so if you can throw a couple dollars at this, it would be greatly appreciated!
Also, after the event I thought it would be nice to get together at the [[COLOR="Blue"]Appalachian Brewing Company (ABC)[/COLOR]]("http://www.abcbrew.com/harrisburg/brewpub.htm") on Cameron Street for some local micro brew and socialization!
