10x10 is the same as last year, although all 10x10 spots are not exactly the same. We probably will not find out about the location until Friday.

Hey Phoebe and James,

Here is my list of items to get/find/bring:

  • Popup posters/banners

I'll check with LiAnna to be sure but we should almost certainly be able to use 1 or 2 of these.
 
  • Laptops
should talk with OIT about this 
  • Freebies (stickers, buttons)
I'll handle these
 
  • Educational material
    • How to edit
    • Evaluate quality
    • Annual reports?

and these 
  • Printouts on each project
Do we have any thing like this prepared from before?
 
  • Large TV
  • Projector, screen
Should talk to OIT about these
 
  • Extra chairs
  • Small folding table
  • Switch
  • Power strip
  • Ethernet cables
These we should be more then fine with from office
  •  
  • Duct tape
This is probably around the office but need to look around
  • Table cloths
    • Fabric for the sides of our booths
  • Signs
  • More signs?
  • Sharpies
in Office supplies, easy
  • Sign for signatures (“I use Wikipedia for...”)
 
Once we settle on this we can talk with Jay and get this printed 
  • Sample POD books
  • James’ store equipment
  • Water bottles for volunteers
    • Snackfoods?
  • Those vests

Also, I just found out we have a 10x10 booth and two tables.

is 10x10 the size we had last year? Do we know location?
 

Cheers,
Stephen

Hey James --

Yes, I'll have the back of my car and the backseat free for
people/boxes (though I don't have the biggest car, as you know...!) I
will also be staying in San M. Friday/Sat so we can stash them
whereever we have room.

Also on my shortlist to come up with:
* table skirting -- if we have more tables we need more table coverings
* water
* something to hand out about the local group
* something else to give people -- brochures about
wikimedia/wikipedia? Any thoughts on this?

Let me know if there's any missing electronics -- I can always take my
tv etc but it would be easier not to, and just take stuff from the
office.

Also I'm going to try to come early -- so if we must we can make a
couple of runs.

I like the "I love Wikipedia because...." idea!
