OVFF/Sukkot

So as some of you already know, the Ohio Valley Filk Festival overlaps with the Jewish holiday of Sukkot this year.

If you don't know what either of those are or why it's relevant that they overlap, feel free to ignore this post, as it mostly assumes you do know and is of a practical rather than explanatory nature. (An explanatory post, if anyone wants one, may be forthcoming.)

If you do: read on!

I've gotten permission from the Dublin Clarion hotel to set up a sukkah in the courtyard for the weekend. Go me!

Next step: I'm pricehunting online for a popup portable sukkah. So far all I can find is the teenytiny one that seats maybe three people, but I'm told a bigger one exists.

Best price I can find for the teenytiny one is $169, here, and that's not counting shipping. Since we're in somewhat tight financial circumstances right now, we'd like to ask the help of anyone else who'll be coming to OVFF and would like to use the sukkah. If the tiny one's the only one we can get, we may have to use it in shifts.

So: sing out, folks! Who'd be interested in the presence of a sukkah at OVFF, and who's willing to chip in for one?
