All,

My name is Kevin Roof; I'm a member of Workshop 88, a hackerspace based in
the suburbs of Chicago.

We're guessing many of you have been following news on the near-space
weather balloon projects around the country, but if not, here are a few
links to start:
On Makezine<http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2009/09/students_photograph_earth_from_spac.html?CMP=OTC-0D6B48984890>
On Hackedgadgets

We've come up with an interesting hackerspace competition involving
near-space balloons that we thought many of you would be interested in.
 I've attached an informational sheet and marketing flyer.

Let us know what you think,
Workshop 88

P.S. If you know of a hacker space we missed, please forward this invite to
them.
