David, I'm sending this to Karen and Charlene as well. Your idea of coordinating all three "functions", i.e.: ** donations/support for the contest ** donation support and booth presence at the Annual AGA Convention ** advertising in TAG sounds GREAT to me. If one person or small group of people can be found and set up to undertake such tasks it might make everyone's life simpler. Again, I want to stress the fact that I don't really care WHO does it, just so long as it gets done in the most efficient and effective manner possible. Having a central clearing house for outside contacts would ensure that the interests of all stakeholders are considered and unnecessary duplication of effort doesn't occur. My only concern at this point is that such a system, if it is going to be of benefit to me and the Contest, will have to be organized and up and running fairly quickly - I want to make sure that the hobby press has notification of the Conest in plenty of time to at least give us a running chance of receiving editorial support for the Contest before the closing date.
