Hi All Just following up on this. The stickers have been sent to Trevor but we still haven't had any response on banners.
I'm investigating the option of getting some roller banners printed for the event. If we do get some done, then we'll need someone to look after them for this and any other events in the region. Are any of the GOTO Chicago volunteers interested in being our local Apache banner person?.
