[Ncabs] GPS Technology Presenter Needed

[Cindy]

I am aware of this. :) However, some states like to bring in someone new. Sometimes, this isn't economical, but the Camp Dogwood rate is not to bad for NCABS in my opinion, and the Charlotte airport/train station/bus station are more affordable and accessible than any in the state. So, if NCABS is interested in someone else, it could happen. It doesn't matter one way or another to me. Just throwing it out there.
