Re: [hudvalleybirthnetwork] Birth Expo space

Hi,
I think it's worth a go for this year, we can always change it if we find the vendors are really important, but there is a store there and other stores within.

Best,
Debbie

Hi everyone,

I just spoke to Sue, who checked in with her boss at Destination 
Maternity and had this to report:

1. Yes, we can use the space on Oct 19, 2008. Even better, we can 
use it for free!

2. We cannot have vendors if we use the space.

3. DM would be willing to donate something to a raffle, and probably 
(Sue will double check) wouldn't mind other vendors donating goods as 
well.

4. There was a question of whether they would be willing to be a 
sponsor... what exactly do we want from them in return for their 
sponsorship beyond free space? They don't have $ to donate. They 
were a little confused about that request.

How much do we care about losing the opportunity to have vendors (I 
belive we had 2 last year)? Any concerns about having a store host 
the event? 

Please let me know what you think!

Thanks,
Erica
