Re: Exciting Convention News!
Please include Fiona Fort in the list. She was from Australia, and on the chat board, and she ODed/committed suicide a while ago, but definitely after DJF passed.greygoose1 wrote:I was thinking the same the same thing, slush.

Re: Exciting Convention News!
Zoe/Schmernoff too, she died a few years ago. Shit, what a depressingly long list.

Re: Exciting Convention News!
Now that matters have firmed up, it's probably a good time to put a definitive fact sheet: Where, when, what, where to fly in, car pooling possibilities, etc. What is the address of the place, for instance? What time of day will the actual thing kick off? Etc

Re: Exciting Convention News!
Memorial Day weekend, May 22-27, Thursday to Tuesday. Schedule, a work in progress. I plan on nightly entertainment. And other stuff.Modern Drunkard wrote:Now that matters have firmed up, it's probably a good time to put a definitive fact sheet: Where, when, what, where to fly in, car pooling possibilities, etc. What is the address of the place, for instance?

Oxbow Resort Motel, 1741 Rte 2, Charlemont, MA 01339.
Airports: Hartford/Springfield, aka Bradley, about a 75 minute drive. Or Boston, aka Logan, about a 2.5 hour drive. At least 2 Drunkards will be driving by Bradley, NY Dingbat and Treetop. Others who are carpooling are in this thread somewhere.
I think it will kick off when you get there. When will that be?

Re: Exciting Convention News!
If it's kicking off on Thu then I will do my damndest to touch down at Logan on the 22nd. Let me touch base with the other CO drunkards as we'll probably want to share the flight and rental car.slushfund wrote:Memorial Day weekend, May 22-27, Thursday to Tuesday.
