Fundraising
Possibilites for more fundraising were discussed. Paula proposed creating a table that listed various amounts for various sponsorship opportunities. (Breaks, exhibit tables, program cover, etc.) The committee thought it was a good idea. Amounts were discussed. Paula will draft a cover letter and table of sponsorship opportunities. Possible sponsors were discussed.

Receptions
The first evening reception will be in the UNLV Law Library circulation area and will be sponsored by the Boyd School of Law.
The second evening reception will be at the Border Grill in Mandalay Bay. Menu and seating options were discussed. It was decided not to have an open bar because of the expense. A cash bar will be available in the restuarant.

Shuttle
Cindy reported that she is looking into shuttle companies to provide transporation to and from the hotel. The shuttle will probably cost in the range of $700/day, which is going to be a considerable expense.

Gift Bags

Publicity
