Tuns out, this year, there is a $1,000 fee for our booth (that is their "non-profit" rate). I tried explaining that the booth is organized entirely by local volunteers from our meetup group, but I don't think they will lower the fee. 

Any ideas how we could cover this?

Hey, congrats everyone, we got accepted again! Wikimedia will be exhibitor #20870 at the 9th Annual Bay Area Maker Faire. I will definitely plan on attending on Friday (May 16) - Saturday (May 17), but I may not be able to stay for Sunday (May 18). Is anyone else interested in helping lead the booth, coordinating with volunteers, or being responsible for unpacking the booth on Sunday and driving back to SF?

I will follow up with the full Wikimedia-sf list in the next few days to begin organizing things. It's going to be fun!

I'll be taking my usual post-school-year vacation to San Francisco. I'll be available.
