As most of you know, this Friday, September 2nd, is our scheduled Salem Ubuntu Hour, normally held at Broadway Coffeehouse at 6pm. Also taking place this Friday Sept 2nd is Oregon State Fair's "Mighty Friday" - That means fair admission is just $1 all day long, plus admission includes concert, and all events.
That being said; what do we want to do? Q1. Do we want to cancel this Friday's Salem Ubuntu Hour do to the fair, move meeting time up one hour, or perhaps, all meet somewhere at the State Fare? As for myself, I'm in favor of meeting at Broadway one hour early (5:00pm), then heading to the State Fair. Below are some attractions you may be interested in seeing while at the fair, which also take place Friday Sept 2nd. If anyone is interested in ride sharing to the fair, please let me know, and I can meet you at Broadway at 5:00pm. *Motorsports Championships:* The finals of the Northwest Motorsports Series Spectacular, featuring Monster Trucks and Tuff Trucks. Friday, Sept. 2nd, 6:00-7:30 pm At the State Fair’s Machine Mania Pavilion. *Montgomery Gentry concert:* Friday, Sept. 2nd, 7:00 PM Approximately 6,000 general admission seats for each concert are FREE with paid admission to the Fair on a first come, first served basis. Or advance VIP tickets for $35.

STREAM - First Robotics Competition Stronghold. High school teams compete head to head on a special playing field with robots they have designed, built, and programmed. Friday, September 2nd.

Please let me know what the general consensus is regarding holding Salem Ubuntu Hour at the fair, or perhaps holding it earlier at Broadway, or canceling it, do to fair. Best regards Phil.
