A word of mouth campaign and passing out flyers I think would work. I know
a few skilled people who might be willing to attend. If you could send me
over some specifics on what you need I can narrow the list. A few people
would like to deman as well.. I haven't been around much since I now live
father away. Some of the people I know out of work have mentioned looking
for something to do like this and I have told them about it. I can talk to
them more detailed if I know what you need hands wise.
