WHAT CHARRETTE DAYS ARE YOU STAYING?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hi. I have asked Bryan Boyer, an architect and principal of the Dash 
Marshall urban strategy and innovation consultancy 
(http://www.dashmarshall.com), and a Detroit resident, to help me 
structure the charrette. To help us gauge how to structure it, we’d like 
to see how many people are going to be able to attend on what days. If 
you’re planning to stay for it, which many of you are (Thank you!), please 
fill out the following 1-question survey. It should take you about a 
minute. Really.

his past gig running the Helsinki Design Lab:

SCIENCE FAIR AT TECHTOWN ON FRIDAY
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
We’re having dinner at TechTown on Friday, and we’ve asked TechTown to 
invite founders of Detroit startups in their orbit to the event. As part 
of this, we think this may be a great opportunity to show off novel 
technology we’re bringing. Usually we make time during the main event for 
a “Science Fair” style in-depth show and tell of new technology, but this 
year we’re hoping we can do it during dinner. If you’re planning to bring 
new technology, we’d love it if you could spend some of dinner showing it 
off. If you need anything special for it (AV, Internet, etc.), please let 
us know.

PLEASE PAY!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I know this only applies to some of you, but if you haven’t yet paid, 
please do so.

Here’s the payment link:

If you have requested a discounted admission or would like to, please 
contact us at rsvp at sketching-in-hardware.com and we’ll work something out. 
We want to make sure everyone who wants to attend, can.

Thank you!

And again thank you to our primary sponsors this year, the Knight 
Foundation. Also thanks to TechTown, the Henry Ford, and Sparkfun 
Electronics!
