while that hotel looks lovely, I'm not sure it has everything we want. It doesn't look like they have suites, for the hospitality suite, or any kind of meeting room/ballroom we could have prom in.
Well, the party always has been in the hotel but I don't suppose it HAS to be -- as long as its in staggering distance.
Just floating an idea: What if this time we picked the city THEN picked the date? We'd be better able to cope with local events, weather, etc.
A lot of the time people can make a date but end up not coming because they can't make the cost -- this could be a way to keep the costs down.
Or maybe pimp a city and a date (or two) at the same time.
That way were deciding between, say, Atlanta at a good time for Atlanta and Boston at a good time for Boston.
I completely second Trudy's idea. Can we please pick the city and then the date? My answer to "when could you attend" will vary wildly depending on the city.
Well, this one's easy for me. I can almost guarantee Thessaly and I will finally show up if it's in Boston.
Or maybe you and sj should pimp Worchester...

Worcester. I won't pimp it because I really don't want to be a point person in charge of things. Sorry.
I was just coming back to fix that.
Silly fingers.
There's only one hotel in Worcester that would work, and frankly, I think everyone would have more fun closer to Boston.
That being said, I can already predict I'll have one or two Buffistas in my guest room, 45 minutes away or no ...
Choosing the city first is priority. That's why I am asking for city pimpage, not prospective dates.
I'm waiting to hear back from the woman at the Convention & Visitors Bureau before I pimp NYC. I sent her a follow-up email over the weekend, and if I don't hear back by the end of today I'll call directly.
