[NoVa-Corvairs] Notes from Vair Fair planning 9 July

[Puglisi, Michael]

You guys did cover a lot of ground yesterday. I'm sorry I missed it.

I'll be happy to cover the model car competition responsibilities.  I
was just on the CORSA website and found the rules and judging sheets. It
looks like that will be a pretty fun job.

Mike

Thanks to Ron for hosting our meeting today.  We got quite a lot 
covered, I typed up my notes, they are below.  There are a few of our 
members we need thought might be interested in certain activities, I 
have them noted as Ask.  Please write back with anything I missed, and 
if you're interested in working on something.

Meeting notes 7/9/2006

Hotel.  Ron.  General guidelines - $89 or less for room rate, prefer 
$79.  Manassas ok, but if Leesburg costs can be kept down that's a good 
spot.  Need the following at the hotel:
	Indoor vendor
	Hospitality where we can supply snacks, big enough for videos,
etc.
	Hotel catered banquet ok, but is a negotiation point
	RV parking a plus
	Tech session room
	Place for valve cover races

Hospitality room

		50/50

etc.)
