This is a very large flea market in Western Washington...  We (AMSAT) 
should have some exposure at these events...  I'm only one person, so 
next year I would like put AMSAT on the map there.  I have no idea how 
to go about it.  Any advice, volunteers, sugestions and how to do this 
would be appreciated.

I think several AMSAT area coordinators (including myself) would be 
willing to give you some advice.  It's not particularly difficult to run 
an AMSAT booth at a hamfest.  Sign up for a table (preferably with 
electricity so you can demonstrate tracking software on a laptop 
computer).  Inform Martha 3 weeks before the hamfest, and she will send 
you a big box that contains AMSAT books/software/trinkets to sell, and 
also a big AMSAT banner to display.

I will run an AMSAT booth at the SEAPAC hamfest in Seaside, Oregon in 
June.  You are welcome to help me out to see how it's done.
