There are various "computer shows" that take place at semi-regular intervals. Some of them happen almost every weekend. They are generally a place where vendors rent booths and hawk their wares to potential customers. A bit like a flea-market, but more vendor/customer orientated (rather then the traditionally peer-to-peer nature of a flea-market). These might be a target of a GNHLUG evangelism effort. We could rent a booth and advocate Linux from there.
HossTraders is kinda like this.
Anyone willing to volunteer for this?
