NJ DIS Meet Weekend for Give Kids the World - April 26-28! The TOTAL is IN! - Page 7 - The DIS Discussion Forums

WDWGeek1971 · 02-20-2013, 04:14 PM

I just registered for the Saturday event. I couldn't figure out how to register for the Friday night event. I won't be staying at the hotel as I just live up the road. I am pretty sure I can see the Elks Lodge from my office window, so if there is any on-site preparation work to be done, please let me know! Happy to help out if it is day of the event, or even well before hand.

There is no registration for the Friday event as of yet, but we will collect a list of who is attending and post it here.

Looking forward to seeing you again and thanks for volunteering. We will let you know what we'll need help with as soon as it gets closer.

We're registered and we can't wait!!!

*NikkiBell* · 02-21-2013, 05:27 PM

A few people have asked what airport is the closest to our event. The best option is Newark Liberty International (EWR).

I'm getting so excited to see everyone!!!

I know I've been MIA for a while, but I will be there Fridan and Saturday. You all seem to have done an amazing job in organizing this and I am so excited to be a part of it. Thank you!

tstidm1 · 02-22-2013, 06:16 PM

Thinking about doing the Saturday end of the trip, but am going to be taking the train. Is there a NJ Transit station near where this is being held? Not an expert on getting there via NJ Transit, so I wanted to ask before committing.

You can take a Northeast Corridor train to Newark and switch to another train to get you closer to the area. A lot of backtracking involved. Not directly to where we will be though.
I don't live in that area, so I don't know about buses, etc. But I did a quick Googlemaps search.
If you can drive- it's just about 3 hours exactly (Baltimore to Bridgewater).
The train, train, bus option would be somewhere between 5 & 9 hours! And it looked a little painful!

Is driving not an option? We would love to have you join us!

Driving isn't an option, no license. I can do some long trips before. It's 2 hours from where I am in Baltimore Area (Aberdeen, MD) to Newark, NJ by train. Hearing there are buses nearby helps. I may also spend Friday night up there to help on the travel.

So glad to see you registered!

I was disappointed I couldn't get to your meet, but loved hearing all about it.

Nom · 02-23-2013, 05:37 PM

I am going to register (cant right now bc cleaning for company that are arriving in an hour, but wanted to check in). It will be me and my 8 year old daughter. I may also probably bring my 9 month old.

I can't wait to meet everyone! My daughter and I listen to the podcast together and she is especially excited to see the podcast taping!
