I spent a little time on the Hornet this afternoon, coming in at the end
after Wes Freeman and Lee Teicheira spent all day setting up the booth
and talking to the sparse opening day crowd (it was really setup day, and
a lot of the tables weren't even manned, but it was still open to the
public).

Right now we only have one name on the volunteer sheet for tomorrow, and
that's BayNAR president Marty Krikorian. I plan to be there in the
afternoon, after our launch, to bring the banner and some launch pads for
display, but could really use a couple more bodies.

I know this weekend is a killer and we're spread really thin with the
regular launch, the San Ramon Rocket Day also tomorrow, but if you want
to get on the Hornet for free, and take all the tours (if there's more
than one person at the booth), this is a golden opportunity. There's no
minimum amount of time, and the help is needed all week. Whenever you
could spare an hour or two (plus driving), it would be worth your while.

Hardware request. Even if you can't spare some time, we desperately need
a DVD player and monitor/TV to show our promotional video. The Hornet was
originally going to provide these, but at the end, could only supply us
with electricity. We used Lee's laptop today, which works acceptably
well, but a TV would be better.
