Des Moines Mini Maker Faire will be held on Labor Day again this year.   Their call for makers will close on August 4th.  The purpose of this thread is to determine interest in exhibiting either as OMG or as individuals, and cooperating on transportation.

I want to attend. The OMG booth has a passive option if we want to set it up without committing to manning it all day. But it will require folks to set it up and tear it down.

I'd also like to attend (and would be happy to drive), but I am not especially interested in setting up the booth.

Can we get a show of hands as to who is going?

Last year, we met at OMG around 7a and left from there.  That gave us a few hours to walk around the event, then grab some tasty lunch at Zombie Burger, and still get back to Omaha at a reasonable time in the mid afternoon.  I'm all in favor of doing that again.

Who's in?

I am still interested in attending, but will have to clarify my weekend schedule tonight before I can commit.  I've had a few things come up and there's a chance I won't be able to come.

That aside, if I'm available I would definitely favor a repeat of last year's approach.  I'm also willing to drive and can carry up to 3 passengers, with reasonable legroom for at least one of them.

I actually don't think I'll be able to make it.  I'm really sorry to back out, but I need the day to catch up on some things.  I hope my absence doesn't kill the trip entirely.

We also won't be attending... I have some chores to do around here...

Sorry!
