Dear Corey,
Thank you for your invitation to attend the Vermont Tech Jam this year.
TechnoRubbble, a non-profit start up cannot afford the $400.00 fee
necessary to exhibit at your event.
Based upon our phone call this afternoon, I now understand that there may
be opportunities for the BOSI TechnoRubble project to be sponsored into
the Tech Jam. If you get any nibbles on this type of sponsorship, we
would be most grateful, as this fee is a pretty stiff barrier to the
TechnoRubble project.
In any event, thanks and say hi to Cathy for me.
Sincerely,
Paul Flint
Director
Barre Open Systems Institute

Greetings,
The Barre Open Systems Institute (BOSI) has inaugurated, been developing
and operating a project we call "TechnoRubble", where we try to keep
electronic cords and accessories out of the waste stream. This is a self
funded volunteer initiative, we have a web site here:
http://technorubble.org/
The TechnoRubble booth is comprised of a vast selection of plastic bagged
TechnoRubble that can be purchased piecewise by passers-by for $1 per bag.
While the profits from this have been, shall we say miniscule, the
visibility we bring to the problem of TechnoRubble in the waste stream is
very positive. Another benefit we have discovered when we participated in
the Rutland and Shelburne Mini Maker Fairs is that fellow exhibitors who
forgot some cord or other were able to find what they needed at our booth.
The proceeds from the sale of TechnoRubble are intended for use in the
instantiation of a Maker Space in Barre Vermont, and part of the
TechnoRubble mission is to talk up this project, and find resources to
implement this Washington County maker space.
If, at this late date, we wanted a 10X10 booth at the Champlain Fair Tech
Jam, do you know of anyone I could contact?
Kindest Regards,
