UAH EXPO 2010

What it is

http://www.uah.edu/expo

I'd like to invite you and The Sapient Readers Guild to participate in the Charged Up For Change EXPO at UAH on March 31. It's going to be this great community fair that features creative ways of participating in the local community--through art, independent business, athleticism, activism, you name it. Here's a link to our web page ( http://www.uah.edu/expo ). The purpose is to help students and others see all the creative ways that they can be involved in positive social change by exhibiting diverse organizations and individuals that use their passions tomake their world better. Some of the other participants so far are The Flying Monkey, Lowe Mill, swimmer Mimi Hughes, The Green Coalition, and many more. I think it would be awesome to have you represented in our University Center! Bring your books!

To register, go to: http://www.uah.edu/expoRegistration is free!!

If you'd like to talk more about this, call my cell 256-694-6786. Thanks! Erin

Ps. We'd like to invite The Makers too. Can you get me contact info for them? Or maybe pass along the invite?

The EXPO will begin at 10a.m, so please have your display ready by then if possible. The exhibit hall will open at 8:00 a.m.

PARKING: You can park anywhere in the UC parking lot (directly in front of the UC). You will not need a decal. If you need help unloading, check in at the welcome desk and we will be happy to assist you.

One 6’30” table will automatically be reserved for you. If you need more space, please let us know. Also, electric outlets are limited, so if you need one be sure to let us know as soon as possible. Full guidelines for the exhibits can be found at www.uah.edu/expo/.
