[Hidden-tech] seeking program coordinator for April

[A - Z International]

Hi all,

Many of you know that my mother died on Dec. 24. My energy is going into 
developing a wonderful musical memorial for her on Sunday, April 2 in 
Mechanics Hall in Worcester. (She was a concert pianist and the first 
marketing director for the hall). Anyone who loves music and wants to see a 
beautiful concert hall, along with sharing memories with me, is welcome. 
The event is form 1 - 3 p.m.

Now -- the crux of this email. Because of her death and the memorial, I 
have no time to develop a program for April. Someone gave me a fun idea -- 
a gadget night where we all share our Treos, Blackberries, Smart phones, 
whatever . . . and do a bit of show and tell. I never get to play on these 
devices and would love to learn more. OR we could simply get together to 
hang out at a place like Smokin 'Lils in Noho or All Fired Up in Hadley.

I just don't have time to organize even the simplest program. So, if you're 
getting sick of winter and want to make sure you see your Hidden-Tech 
buddies in April, reach me at az at a-zinternational.com. I'll connect you to 
our super program logistics person -- Kathy Reinig -- who will help you 
book some space. Then you connect to me to develop a promo and to Claudia 
Gere to get some news coverage, if the program is on that level.

Here are a few dates to hold for programs already booked:

March 21 - Growing Your Business Fair

May 6 - Tour of the Colonial Theater in Pittsfield with Berkshire 
Hidden-Techies to see how the renovation of a real gem and meet Berkshire 
arts professionals.

May 16 - Sheldon Snodgrass is running a sales session extraordinaire 
entitled PROSPECTING, COLD CALLS AND SALES, OH MY! with all proceeds going 
to Hidden-Tech.

Hoping to hear from you!
