July 18 2009 Tortola - Part 2!

[WVMD]

FE-I think 10 days prior to sailing would be fair because as someone else mentioned, If you were signing up that late it would be difficult to collect or make that many FE gifts not the mention the FE itself. Also the last min packing rush would not really leave any time to continue to add to your final number. Jmho

Isn't somebody leaving in early July for WDW? Maybe we should just set July 1 as the deadline.

I would like to propose an FE cut off of July 1st. This is an easy date for everyone to remember and gives everyone a couple of weeks to finalize what they are doing and how they are going to get things to the ship. It will also give me time to finalize the list and email to those who want it ahead of time.

There is a chance that some stateroom numbers may change at embarkation but it will be few and easy to take care of.

Also, PLEASE review the list and make sure the information is accurate! There are some people on the list have haven't posted for awhile so I'm not sure about the info. The current list on post 1 is up to date as of Wednesday night. I will try and get another update posted tonight.

I second that. I think that's fair. And thank you for taking on the task of 'keeper of the FE list'.

Is there anyway to verify that the people that haven't posted in a long time are still on this cruise and participating?

That would be us, leaving on July 1st. We will bring enough for 40 in the F.E.. I hope , if there is a updated room change, someone will let us know at the meet on Sunday. If something is going on Saturday, hopefully ,we will know by the time we leave. Disney World for 5 days, Universal for 4 days, then Ormond Beach until the cruise.

The best way to do this would be to send PMs to everyone who is signed up for the FE to confirm that they still plan to participate. If they don't respond by the deadline, then they could be removed from the list.

I don't want to exclude anyone, but I also don't want to stress about preparing special gifts if the individual is no longer on the cruise or forgot about the FE exchange. If someone has dropped off, this would also make it easier to accomodate last-minute additions.

July 1 is a good date for me. I don't think anyone wants the cutoff to be this Wednesday when we are actually leaving for our trip!

I think July 1st is a good cut off date for the FE exchange. We are taking enough for 40 as that is what I ordered stuff for. If we go beyond that I will buy stuff at WDW to make up bags for them.

I've started my very last class. The day we board the ship I will be finished with my masters. I am ready to be done and take a break from school.
