[CoLoCo] Idea: CD Booth at Bookstore

[Mitch Mahan]

I still have CD's (supplies are diminishing though) left for your 'event'.

 

Let me know how many CD's you need and I can be as accommodating as
possible.

 

I have placed a new CD order into ShipIt! (however I will have to reserve a
lot of those for the TIE event).

I was also thinking a Saturday would be the best time to do it.

I will call around and find out the all the details of having a booth in the
stores and report them back to the group. From there we can try to schedule
a date that would work best for whomever was interested. I was also thinking
that if a lot of people are interested we could do this in more than just
one bookstore since I don't think we would need more than a few people to
run one booth.

We will also have to get a bunch of CD's for distribution. Mitch - is this
something you could help us out with?
