In conjunction with this nice wall of text, I am weighing out options to make an appearance myself. As my only roadblock with everything else handled for the event is, well, ACTUALLY getting there. I could do the 11 hour drive our I can do a flight. but with it being such a close deadline the former may be my only option. Otherwise members that are going I am happy to help provide promotional materials such as a backdrop w/ stand, flag, standing banner, etc.
