5/30-31, San Mateo, BAVeg - MAKER FAIRE tabling & outreach

[Guest guest]

Bay Area Vegetarians has an opportunity to table at a wonderful event called Maker's Faire in San Mateo at the County Fairgrounds. We need YOUR help to make that happen this year. NO previous experience is necessary. All you need is a smile and willingness to share information about veg*nism that will indeed change lives.

 

"Maker Faire is a two-day, family-friendly event that celebrates the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) mindset. It’s for creative, resourceful people of all ages and backgrounds who like to tinker and love to make things." Last year over 80,000 people attended and this year it could be even bigger.

 

Had a really wonderful time last year, and gave out lots of information, too. http://www.makerfaire.com Volunteer Shifts are available on both Sat & Sun for shifts. Please note, volunteers do get free admission to the event!

Read more about last year's booth and how R2-D2 got leafleted :-)

Elizabeth, who has been organizing regular leafletings at the Menlo Park/Palo Alto Farmer's Markets, is co-organizing with me this year and will be managing the booth on Sunday, and I'll do Saturday. Please let either one of us know if you have any additional questions.

Let's get out there and make some new veg*ns!!

 

Cheers,Tammy
