Could I possibly have some more info re: time & place, what to bring, 
etc? I'm giving a public newbie tute next week and could possibly do up 
a flyer or at least let the audience know that it's on. It's yet more 
publicity.

Also, I'd be interested in helping out on the day. What to do? Who to 
contact?

regards,
sol

PS: Suggestion: Would it be worth having a donation box there on the 
day? Perhaps one for CA and one for PLUG to cover expenses, etc?
