Are they going to spell out our club name above the description?!?
  We don't have the word "Linux" in the description at all... :)
  ... didn't mention mailing lists and library... suggest mentioning
  demos and installfests by name.

How about this:

LUGOD is a non-profit computer club serving Davis, California=20
and the Sacramento area.  LUGOD's goals are advocacy, education,=20
support, and socializing.

LUGOD holds free meetings twice a month, with guest speakers=20
and informative presentations, as well as semi-regular=20
demos and installfests.

We maintain an extensive technical library and focused mailing lists
(Technical, Outreach, Social, and Job-Hunting).

(if you strip all the whitespace from above you get less than 392
characters... :)

  Ask them if the cost can be waved for a .org booth... it shouldn't
be too hard for them.  ;)
