Would anyone be interested in RiddleCon t-shirts with Bernie's logo? I have a friend who runs a silk screening business, and I was thinking of asking her what she might be able to do for us. Personally, I wouldn't want to spend much more than $8 or so on a t-shirt. If enough people are interested, maybe she could get them made for us at a decent price. It would be neat to see a wave of lime green t-shirts around the pool and at Cedar Point!

Very cool logo! I like the idea of t-shirts if they're not too expensive.
I think we'll probably go for the tenting at the State Park. $18. per night vs. $70. is a pretty considerable amount of money especially when you add in our exchange rate.
I just got home from a DIS meet here, and I think 1 of the other families will probably come for the weekend too, and they might camp with us. Anyone else interested?

Ok I bought my season pass I gotta get to Cp at least twice this year to make it worth my 89.00 BUCKS. I Really hope to make it up there for Towncrier weekend but unless the Holiday gods are on my side I'll be at work, seeing as i'm off the 2 weekends prior.

Riddle con I'm coming up for at least the day if not weekend.

I think the t-shirt idea is great!!!

Let me know when you have details.

Okay, Maggie and I are booked for the Days Inn Friday and Saturday nights and we got the $69 a night rate for a King. .

A pool party at 8pm Friday night sounds great, and I'm sure we can slide a few "guests" in. . .

And the t-shirt thing sounds cool!!! Let us know what you come up with. .


This is looking better and better. . can't wait!!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Great logo, Bernie!!!!!! Looks like it will be a big turnout for sure.

I'll send a life-sized picture of me.....maybe one of those cut-outs......just get me a lounge chair by the pool and I'll be really quiet....as long as Will doesn't try to choose my outfits!!

Oh Boy! Riddlers and Saturday night chatters at a DIS meet with a REAL POOL PARTY! Is there going to be a real hot tub available too??!!!

Sounds like a great time you guys are gonna have.

Hmm.... We will be attending at wedding in Omaha on 8/8/03 and are toying with the idea of driving out. I wonder if this Cedar Point place is on the way, not that we have a lot of time to spare due to restricted vacation time, but I would love to meet up with you people for even just a little bit of time instead of just seeing your pictures after the event! LOL

 

[WillyJ]

Well c'mon Gail. . I will be wearing something diffrerent for the pool party!!!

How are you guys getting the $70 rates at Days Inn? The cheapes I see is $107. I think I will try calling direct since we can get a AARP discount that way.

 

[Kitty 34]

Willy, nice dress but I think I'll stick with a T-shirt!!

Not sure if my teens will wear a T, but DH and I will!

 

[Towncrier]

The rate at the Days Inn was so good that I decided to make ressies for my Memorial Day weekend DISmeet. The website appeared to lockup while my reservation was being concerned. The browser said to press refresh, so I did a couple of time. I ended up with THREE reservations for the night of May 23rd. The only way that I could tell this was the confirmation emails that I received. I was able to use the Days Inn website to cancel two of the three reservations. If any of you had to try a couple of times to get through, please check your email confirmations to make sure that you don't end up with multiple rooms.

 

[dianeschlicht]

I had a similar problem, TC, but got it corrected. I finally got the $69.95 rate too! Now I just hope we can make it!!!

 

[DixieDreamer]

The planning has begun!!!

For the meal - Bernie... the only druthers I have is please can we have a meat option that is not BREADED to the point I cannot dig the thing out... or SLATHERED with sugar laden barbeque sauce. I don't mind if one of two options is all that meets that critieria... but if all of it is like that ... I will go HUNGRY. (trying to use my most pitiful face!) If the brats are not sauced with barbeque sauce... they would work GREAT for me.

I LOVE the logo and think the t-shirt idea is awesome if we can get a reasonable price.

I am on for the pool party... but you do realize what that means don't you?! We will not be in our smarty pants... but in BATHING SUITS! AAAACCKKK!!!! DD loves her pool time... so breaking away from the park for an evening of swimming... won't be hard to talk her into!

I am really, really looking forward to this.

Tulirose... I think you need to plan a detour in your trip!

 

[DixieDreamer]

Just had another thought.... just how BIG is the Days Inn pool do you think? I have this mental image of 50 DISers and their family all crammed in an oversized hot tub! LOL!

 

[Breezy_Carol]

So, for the T-shirt. You could but the logo on the back and where the small logo often goes on the front where a pocket would be,
IHSEIM.

I would be interested in a shirt but I doubt if anyone else in my family would.

Does anyone's else's families think you are nuts. I talked about RiddleCon to DH and he said, "is this going to go on for 7 months. There are shorter pregnancies."

 

[Breezy_Carol]

Re: the pool party. DH said to me, "do you really want to meet all these people for the first time in the skimpiest clothes possible?" I figure the kids will be in the pool and we will be on the side. We could always call adult swim.

I too picture a tiny pool overrun with riddlers.
