Where are you staying for the W & D half marathon?

[jeanigor]

ok, I think I will throw out there Meeting sometime early evening on Friday - could do a Port Orleans Riverside Food court thing like we do for the Princess Half, or a POP food court thing like we do in January or we could do another location - maybe DTD?? Any other suggestions??????
Thinking maybe around 4pm-4:30 pm so people can meet and greet, take photos and then head off for early evening if doing the 5K in the morning or off to eat at another location or back to the parks....

Just let us know when and where...we have an ADR at Boma @ 5 I think, but we'd be game to get in on some photos and meet some other WISHers

Just a 'note' that the kids races are at 4pm Friday.

Not that this affects the majority of your target audience (I'm assuming), but for that reason, I wouldn't be able to attend a WISH meet up at that time - and it would be my first 'cause I'm new to this WISH thing.

I,too, am doing the Boma Dinner Meet at 5:00. If you do something later that night, race day, or the day after, I would be interested.

Don't want to make it too late of a night, I know a few of us are doing the 5K in the morning on Saturday morning & the 1/2 that night...and I need my beauty sleep.

Im still trying to hammer down my plans for the week...not 100% sure if I am going solo or what not...but possibly interested in meeting up Friday, especially if solo

The same goes for me. I'll be at the Boma dinner but if the meet up is early enough to make I'd be there.

If you guys want to do a food-court meeting maybe instead of the food court at POR the meet could be at the food court at AKL (Mara). We could get the picture and the people who don't want to do the sit down meal at Boma can grab something to eat and those that do can hang out and then break off at 5 for the meal. Either the lobby or the savanna area behind the lobby would make for a good spot for a WISH photo.

Just a suggestion.

Trying to get back into the WISH boards since I've been missing for so long!

I'll be staying at All Star Sports... 10/1-10/3

I love the idea for a meet on Friday. I can go wherever you tell me to be.
So count me in.

This sounds like a great compromise, and we would have the opportunity for one big family photo! Great idea...I second it, for what it's worth - which may not be much.

Frank's idea is boss.

Sorry, as the whole WIne and Dine is set up so differently than the other races. The other races had the kids races on Saturday just after the 5K and at the ESPN WWoS complex. I know that there are some doing a BOMA thing later on that evening, the expo is on Friday and then Saturday is the 5K and then later on that same evening is the Half. I think most people are doing a quick weekend so it does make it very tricky to do any sort of a "meet".

I will keep the Friday evening Wisher meet for whomever can come by. I will say 4pm at the AKL - in the lobby area. OK peeps, it is set!!!

[Embroidery Grandma]

The list of where everyone is staying is posted on the 1st thread. Thought this would be easier for everyone to find. Will up date every week.
