Put compu_85 on for goodie bag stuffing on Thursday night.

The list is looking great! Thanks to everyone who is volunteering their time this year. It's a huge help - we've all been very very busy on the planning side of things and it's really great to see everything coming together!

Did I hear that we have sold out the hotel rooms and have gone to OVERFLOW??? That's the ticket!

That is correct, BeetleGo! There are a few hotel rooms left at the main hotel and plenty of space at the overflow hotel (at the same price!).

I think i'm already confirmed for the Friday meet and greet as well as the raffle tables on Saturday (just looks like the above hasn't been updated yet...)

-Mike

Edit: Should also make it there on Thursday in time for goodie bag stuffing if y'all need the help, so you can pencil me in for that as well...

I'll be making changes to the Volunteering schedule as I get change requests from people on the fly. I'll be posting an updates list tomorrow morning.

I'm happy to help out with anything but kids, and please don't put me out in the sun too much as I will burn to a crisp. I know well that working an event is far more interesting than just attending. I'll be around the whole time, let me know what I can do to be of assistance.

Joel, to be consistent, do you want to make my name always either Alicia or Sprockette? ;)

Thanks again to all of the volunteers who helped make the weekend such a great success! The volunteers directed traffic, manned the registration suite and raffle table, answered questions and provided information, manned various events and really contributed to a friendly and fun atmosphere.

You all ROCK! :cool:

I regret having to miss this event. Volunteering is one of the best ways to put names to faces around here (some of them you may have known for YEARS online), and to feel like you're contributing to a worthwhile affair! It's also a great way to become a more active member because you'll be more likely to volunteer next time too, which then makes it more likely that you take care of your car properly because you have people to answer to! It's funny how that works!

Lovely! Jason, Drew and I all have a virus that is behaving like Strep. I just got back from the doctor and it is fortunately not Strep, but this virus is definitely going around according to the doc.

Good luck with the appendicitis. :eek:

The appendix was out in under an hour. Now I have a week off work and homebound for most of it. I can't drive anywhere due to narcotic painkillers, but I already feel a lot better. I would have been upset if I missed fest due to this lol.
