If you want to help by adopting one of these speakers or others you don't see here, just write me at president@lilug.org. If your adopted speaker nibbles but has some outlandish (or just unexpected) demand write me before saying no, we might be able to help them out.
If you do decide to do this a few guidelines..
Regular meeting times are best, weeknights second best, and Sundays third best. All are accptable.
The Bazaar is from 9 am to 6:30 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday and from 9 to 5 on Thursday the 16th of December.
They will likely want to take the train out here because of rush hour. Someone can pick them up at the train in Amyityville and drive them back to Manhattan if they like. They should be at the train station by 7:30 pm for an 8 pm meeting.
They can talk about any topic they want. We are a mixed bag when it comes to skill level.
