A method of providing information on an interior of a shelter via a sail is presented. The method includes attaching a first fastener of the sail to a peak bracket of the shelter and attaching a second fastener of the sail to a leg bracket of the shelter. The method also includes attaching a third fastener of the sail to a first joint of the shelter and attaching a fourth fastener of the sail to a second joint of the shelter.
1. A sail in combination with a shelter,
the shelter comprising:
a bracket comprising:
a socket for receiving an end of a link member of a perimeter truss of a roof structure of the shelter, and
a handle for receiving a fastener, a first end of the handle attached to the socket and a second end of the handle attached to the bracket;
a plurality of legs for supporting the roof structure, the bracket coupled to one of the plurality of legs; and
a peak bracket supported by an inner truss of the shelter, the peak bracket supporting a canopy of the shelter; and
the sail comprising:
a first fastener configured to fasten to the peak bracket;
a second fastener configured to fasten to the handle of the bracket;
a third fastener configured to fasten to a first portion of a the perimeter truss on a first side of the shelter; and
a fourth fastener configured to fasten to a second portion of the perimeter truss on a second side of the shelter.
2. The combination of claim 1 , in which the sail comprises four edges, a first edge and a second edge having a first length and a third edge and a fourth edge having a second length.
3. The combination of claim 2 , in which the first length is less than the second length.
4. The combination of claim 1 , in which the peak bracket is attached to an extendable peak pole that supports the canopy of the shelter.
5. The combination of claim 1 , in which each one of the plurality of legs is extendable.
6. The combination of claim 1 , in which the bracket comprises at least two sockets.
7. The combination of claim 6 , in which:
the first portion comprises a first joint connected to a first perimeter truss link and a third perimeter truss link on the first side of the shelter; and
the second portion comprises a second joint connected to a second perimeter truss link and a fourth perimeter truss link on the second side of the shelter.
8. The combination of claim 7 , in which the second side is adjacent to the first side.
9. The combination of claim 1 , in which the sail is positioned below the canopy of the shelter.
10. The combination of claim 1 , in which the sail comprises a printed image.
11. A method of providing information on an interior of a shelter via a sail, comprising:
attaching a first fastener of the sail to a peak bracket of the shelter;
attaching a second fastener of the sail to a leg bracket of the shelter;
attaching a third fastener of the sail to a first joint of the shelter; and
attaching a fourth fastener of the sail to a second joint of the shelter, the sail comprising at least an image, text, or a combination thereof.
12. The method of claim 11 , in which the sail comprises four edges, a first edge and a second edge having a first length and a third edge and a fourth edge having a second length.
13. The method of claim 12 , in which the first length is less than the second length.
14. The method of claim 11 , in which the peak bracket is attached to an extendable peak pole that supports a canopy of the shelter.
15. The method of claim 11 , in which the leg bracket is attached to an extendable leg of the shelter.
16. The method of claim 11 , in which the leg bracket comprises at least two sockets, a first socket engaging a first outer truss link defined on a first side of the shelter and a second socket engaging a second outer truss link defined on a second side of the shelter.
17. The method of claim 16 , in which:
the first joint connects the first outer truss link and a third outer truss link on the first side of the shelter; and
the second joint connects the second outer truss link and a fourth outer truss link on the second side of the shelter.
18. The method of claim 17 , in which the second side is adjacent to the first side.
19. The method of claim 11 , in which the sail is positioned below a canopy of the shelter.
20. The method of claim 11 , further comprising expanding the shelter after attaching the first fastener, the second fastener, the third fastener, and the fourth fastener.
