up with problems in the mobilization stage, give me a call and I can move some of the stuff on my roof rack. Just not sure what to do for the demobe Saturday afternoon... but at least I could help get things there.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Curt, your message was held up since you used a non-subscribed email address to send it. I've approved the message + address now.<br>
<br>
However, since I still don't have a design from you or Ben, the business day is nearly over, and I really don't wanna go in there without a banner, I've placed an order for a PLAIN JANE 8'x2' table banner from esigns. It should arrive Friday, and it's WAY
cheaper than FedEx! FedEx wants $15/sqft. This cost me $133 with overnight delivery being $75 of that. Screw FedEx.<br>
<br>
I also ordered SHIRTS! Le Wife did a simple logo design. You can see it here:<br>

<br>
I ordered 4 large with overnight for Friday. Blam $164. That's enough for HamWAN board of directors and 1 left over for...I'm not sure. Should we give it away, raffle it, bestow it upon someone? :)<br>
<br>
Overall about $300 of promotional materials for Flea Market + hopefully future events too. Event registration was about $100 I think. Weee disappearing money! (No, none of this was from HamWAN budget)<br>
