Mini Meets Itinerary During the DIS Convention

[Linda]

Well here it is folks the big mini meet itinerary Marsha and I attempted to fit everything in with as few schedule conflicts as possible. We may even have room to add a few more. Currently we are looking for a few volunteers to host some of the events. It really does not involve much work, a little fine tuning of the event and arriving at the meet site a little early to welcome those that attend the meet. Oh – yes, I almost forgot, Pete has gone to great lengths to provide all hosts with the new official uniform of the DIS site to be worn by all those helping with the convention and mini meets. This lovely ensemble features a neon lime green T-shirt and jeans that says DIS all over plus a hat that features fiber optic glowing plastic corn cobs that uses the same technology as Spectromagic This is so other DIS’ers can spot you in amongst the crowds and will be available for all to purchase during the event.

<b>Please note that these mini meets are independent from the DIS Convention and that we will not handle any reservations that involve a separate cost (for example tickets to MVMCP, meals or recreation such as mini golf). The mini meets are open to all DIS’ers even those not attending the official convention events. By the way, just kidding about the official uniform of the DIS site. Sorry I could just not help myself</b>

Please email Marsha or I if you would like to volunteer to host a meet, thanks !!! Linda

You are da best!

Thanks Linda...and Marsha!

 

[NurseKim]

Looks great!! Now I can think about having an itinerary now
I'm glad the uniforms are not for real...I was gonna have to resign as a Host!

 

[luvdsny]

Oh Linda! You had me scared to death about those 'host uniforms'!!! ::shaking my finger at you!:: Ba-a-a-a-d girl! ::nodding in disbelief::

 

[SideshowBob]

RATS... SSB was all excited about the hat.... sounded "corn cool" !!!!

 

[Barb]

Aw, man, I was so pumped when I read that!!! I am so disappointed!!! I thought the whole uniform thingie sounded awesome!!!
The mini meet list sounds wonderful. I'd be willing to pitch in as a host, but I don't want to be a host hog. Thanks, Linda, it looks great!! You and Marsha are doing a heck of job!

 

[Smee]

::frantically looking for itinerary::

Thanks guys! You've done a, like, totally awesome job.

Will let you know if I can host something.

 

[fostrmom2mny]

HUGS to you Linda!!

I've no experience with pin trading, but the pin-trading event on 12-2 at the Yacht Club Lobby sounds like something that my girls and I would enjoy. I don't have anything scheduled that day other than packing till that evening for the MVMCP and PS at Crystal Palace. So can we host this?

Whoops! We have a mistake Jaypd's and PatrickIL's thrill ride tour path are different. They both start at MK though.

I will get you the path when I am back home.

I can do the Buzz Lightyear shoot-off. I will even bring a prize for the highest scorer and a booby prize for the lowest scorer!

 

[luvdsny]

Barb, how much does the Tea cost? And when do you pay? Will there be a sign-up for this? I'm not sure if I can swing it or not--depends on the little ones.

But I'm gonna give it my best shot!

Tia, there are all different prices for a wide variety of items. If you look down the convention board, there is a post asking who might be interested in attending the tea. There is also a menu to help you decide. I don't think that was the official sign up. Hope you can make it.

 

[luvdsny]

Oh, I think I remember that thread. I'll go take a peak. Thanks.

 

[Patinmn]

I have looked everywhere...what is the day and time for the corn and emu leg eating contest
