Lawson: could you provide me with a past proposal document as an example?
Also,
How many people would constitute a "team" and what would basic tasks be besides finding a place to have the event?
I could see the following:
1. Line up a meeting place: room costs, use of meeting room(s) and other facilities, other fees.
2. Invite vendors/get conformations, etc.
3. Scout out potential offsite activities,
4. Round up volunteers for the event to help with silent auction, TDI club sales, etc, etc.
5. Forum duties (manage thread on attendee list, field and answer qustions, etc)
6. Line up food caterer if necessary,
7. Manage Tomo's expectations to the fullest.
8. More?
