[Board] Funding for booth at Location Intelligence

[Tyler Mitchell]

Hi Gary and all,

You may have seen already Michael's request for a VisCom budget.  My  
hope was that with that budget we wouldn't need to have multiple  
VisCom requests to the board for approval, but I have some pressing  
needs with one event and need to know if I can commit future funds to  
it.  It would come out of that budget ultimately, but I need to know  
sooner than the board will be able discuss/approve the VisCom budget.

We've been donated booth space at Location Intelligence, but need  
funds to develop the booth and graphics and commit to paying other  
fees around the show.  I estimate it will be 5-10k.  Parts of this  
will be reusable, so these are somewhat upfront costs plus specific  
event costs.

I need to know if I can commit some funds toward this sooner than  
later since I have to sign a show contract or turn back the donated  
booth space.

This event is on VisCom's official list of events and I've been  
coordinating speaking and workshops with others in the community.

Any suggestions on how to proceed?

Tyler
