I'm from long island and plan on going..if anyone is unsure about going due to lack of transportation and lives in the area I am pretty sure I am only going with my Daughter and I have a van that seats 7!

Just so you all know, the server maintenance and move has been completed. There should be no further issues. Matter of fact, the new server is MUCH faster!

Speaking of...

I know this is a shamless plug but if anyone wants or needs web or email domain hosting, please let me know. I do it as part of my consulting business. I will take good care of any DISrs that sign up. PM me for more info.

We will be on the July 2nd cruise out in the west coast next year and will then stay three add'tl nites in DL. I would like to know when you guys finalize the date - if it is for the July 16 week-end date and my dh is not working that week-end (it is a possibility since we will be coming from almost a two-week vacation), we would love to attend. Thanks.

Hey everyone...

Can't make a party out of it but I plan on making a trip out to Allentown in the next few weeks to do some "hotel shopping" and thought maybe 1 or 2 users would like to join me so I can get some additional input.

I also plan on doing the covered bridge tour out there "again" as it must be great with the leaves changing colors.

PM me please if you are interested. PMs only ok?

Thanks,

Fred

WOW, this sounds like fun! I was always interested in a NE DIS meet! I filled out the pre-reg form; hopefully the dates will work for us. Myself and DH should be ok. Thanks for arranging this!

I just happened to stumble upon your post. I decided to check-out the WL thread and was very excited to see your post!

 

[Elwood Blues]

You can count me in since this is practically in my backyard. I'm only about 20 minutes from the Dorney Park area.

Any date set in stone yet????

 

[Majestic]

A lot of people have been asking me for a firm date and I gotta tell yas....

1) There will be no date set in stone till a contract is signed.

2) No contract will be signed till I collect pre-payments for the hall. I can't sign on the line and put down a deposit if 150 people tell me they want to go but only 20 pay for it.

Sorry...I know it sounds cold but it's the truth. This process worked out well for the last meet and I did it for just over 40 people.

I will be collecting payments via PayPal or Money Order ONLY for this meet. (Just a heads up so you can all prepare...) As last time, there will be no refunds if you can't come. I have to pay the hall either way.

We are still in the hotel/banquet hall selection process. As soon as I pick a hall, I will start collecting payments for the meet. As soon as I have enough for a deposit, I will book the hall. That's when we'll have a firm date.

I totally understand and will send you paypal payments as soon as you know the price!

DH and I are looking forward to this!
