Xander ,'Get It Done'
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: Madison, WI from June 20-22 2008! Official website.
One thing we learned is we need to work on our throwing arms.
Or our physics. The bead-throwing would have worked much better if we'd tied the beads in a knot first.
And it's also memorable because SOME Buffistas were smoking after someone else had sex.
snerk. I'd completely forgotten about that.
F2F News
I have been talking to the hotel representative, Melissa. Brenda had previously tentatively booked the ballroom for March 31. Melissa strenuously urged us to pick another weekend, because apparently the Final 4 is here that weekend. The first two weekends in April are currently free for the hotel, and the city doesn't have any major events planned.
I'm meeting with her tomorrow afternoon to look over the hotel.
One possible complication is that they only allow blocks of 10 rooms. She said, however, that if we book early, there shouldn't be a problem, and anyone who mentions the group will still get a discount. It's a very small hotel (45 rooms), so blocking the rooms together won't be a problem. We're just going to have to reserve early.
How shall we decide between the two weekends? Can someone set up a poll? (The weekend of April 6 is not good for me, unless you all want to come to the show April 7 by the band I kind of manage. I can work around that, though, if it's better for everyone else.)
April 6 is easter weekend, so I'd say the following week is most likely to be workable.
Don't forget passover/easter. Easter is April 8. I gather it's a dealbreaker for some.
Oh, yeah. Easter. I hadn't put that together. My mother is going to want me to come home, and that ain't happening.
eta: So should I just go for the weekend of April 13?
Could you also see about March 24th as a second option along with April 13th?
And thank you thank you thank you for taking this on.
I'll also check on March 24.
Thank you! I don't know if it's a date anyone else is interested in, but I figure it might be good to have two options to look at/vote on.
April 6 knocks me off the attendance list too, not so much for Easter as for my mom's birthday.

And mine! Matt's mom is my birthday twin!
