OLF is historically a good show I believe. We have been putting almost
all our money into full time development contracts lately, so the
funds are depleting quickly at the moment. I think we should set aside
some money for another show or two, however.

As usual, if you can try to reduce the number of nights you must stay,
that is preferred :)

Even if it's $100, that's still reasonable for a table I think. Can
you confirm the electricity - I thought historically, the table fee at
OLF included electricity.
As for the gas - the current federal charity amount is 14 cents/mile
which would work out to something like $57 (hint: doesn't even cover
gas). We could very probably cover the gas cost directly, however.
So, it sounds like you're talking about $300-400 total depending on
how many nights you stay?
