<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Hi Aaron, that is fantastic news! You might talk also to sudo room, LOLSpace, Hacker Moms, and Ace Monster Toys (and the folks having meetings for the Bay Area Consortium of Hackerspaces).<br>
<br>One thing I know about starting hackerspaces is that School Factory has sponsored several and is willing to be a fiscal sponsor for new spaces. <a href="http://schoolfactory.org/spacefed">http://schoolfactory.org/spacefed</a> and <a href="https://atrium.schoolfactory.org/spacefed/sponsorship">https://atrium.schoolfactory.org/spacefed/sponsorship</a> explain this! So, basically that means very easy and fast route to being able to accept tax-deductible donations. <br>

Benicia. We seem to have good support right now from the town as well<br>
as other groups. We would really like someone from NoiseBridge to come<br>
to our next meeting and perhaps answer some questions about how to get<br>
started. Is there anyone familiar enough with how NoiseBridge is run<br>
that would be willing to join us in the next few weeks?<br>

Thanks,<br>
