Peter C's tent

[Kathie Brosemer <kathie@cleannorth.org>]

Hi, I just talked with Peter Courtemanche.  He's agreed to meet with us at 
noon on the 11th to put up the kitchen tent.  So we'll need all the 
principals there at that time.

Also, he's offered to sell us his tent.  He says he doesn't need it 
anymore, and he'd like to unload it.

He'd like $500 for it.  He says they go for $2500 new (I haven't verified 
that), and the canvas top will last another 3 yrs or so.  He says that Tarp 
Farm can make us a replacement top when we decide we need to do that.  I 
don't know how much that would cost.

He's also said that he will continue to help us out with setup or training 
new volunteers for setup duties if/when attrition takes its toll on our 
experienced crew.  And he's offered to let us pay for the tent over a 
couple of years if we want to, to fit in our budget for Tree Chipping or 
other projects that use the tent, or to raise the funds through renting 
this tent to other groups.

What do you guys think?
