[Imc-makerspace] Fwd: Would you Like to Join a league of Hackerspaces to race power wheels at Maker Faire: Detroit?

[Stewart Dickson]

Oh, yes.  This would be awesome.   Can we do it in two months?
It would certainly be worth mentioning at the Fundraising Party.
To get anything out of it will require a budget to mention also.
Can it be done in two weeks?
