HPforGrownups: Message from the Moderators

This message has gone out as a "Special Announcement" (which means
that
people who normally access HPforGrownups through webview have received
this as an individual email).  As you know, we only use this function
sparingly.

HPforGrownups is hoping to sponsor (or partially sponsor) a HP event
in 2003 or 2004.  We would be accomplishing this via a non-profit
corporation, which might act as sole or partial sponsor of a number of
HP events in coming years.

We are asking anyone with the following areas of expertise to contact
the Moderators if they are interested in participating in the planning
or if they could simply be available to answer some specific
questions:

a.  Accountants.  Bean counters: we need you desperately!  In
particular, we need assistance with creating and analyzing a
preliminary budget.

b.  Anyone with experience forming or operating or serving on the
Board of Directors of a non-profit corporation.

c.  Anyone with a business or financial background who would be
interested in serving on the Board of Directors of a non-profit or
advising a non-profit Board.

d.  Anyone in academia who would be interested in advising the
conference planners or serving as a liaision between the planning
group(s) and the academic community.

If you have any of the above expertise or background and wouldn't mind
answering some questions or want to become involved in planning these
events, please contact the Moderators at:

Thanks!
