>It's that time again. January 2002 is fast approaching and with it,
>GenTech 2002 in Boston.

>Last year, we threw together a "quick and dirty" promotion for the
>USGenWeb Project. We had a great group of volunteers that got together and
>manned the booth. We had another group that worked on brochures for their
>counties and emailed and snail-mailed them to Holly and myself. And the
>best part, we even recruited at least ONE new CC out of the deal!!
>
>This year, we are trying to get something bigger and better for GenTech.
>We have a double booth at the convention. The plans are, for the moment,
>to have 3 laptops there. One will have a powerpoint demonstration to
>attract folks to the booth, one will be connected to the net to show state
>and county sites to visitors. The third laptop will be for helping CC's
>with HTML and other things dealing with their sites and any questions they
>may have.
>
>This is the plan for this year. However, we can't do it alone. We need
>help from others out there. This year, we would like to have more folks
>help out with the organizing and all the good stuff that will go along
>with making our USGenWeb Booth a great success this year.

>If you are interested in helping out in Boston, or helping get ready for
>the booth, in any way, please let us know. We will be needing help at the
>Booth (if you're gonna be there) and help with the brochures, power point
>demo, and other things.

>Any and all help will gladly be accepted!! Contact us at:
