Sorry folks, I ran off to school without checking how the post looked.  Apparently in transfering the file over, some very glaring omissions were made.  I hope this "takes". 
I also cross posted, which apparently turned out fine in that one.  One way or another we'll get there.

PROGRESS REPORT ONE

Memberships are trickling in.  We do not have them all, and we are wondering what to do if we do have leftover rooms that have been charged to us…please let us know that you are coming, so we can update our list!!!!!  A list of paid memberships will hopefully be made available to you on Tuesday.

A flier was never made available to you on LJ.  My apologies, I do not maintain the site, did send a file to the administrator, but you know how real life intrudes.  If you want a copy, please email me!

We have rented a van, just not a large one this time, due to the fact we won’t be traipsing around the countryside on Saturday.  Sunday will be optional traipsing to the non-Main Street tasting rooms.  This will be after check out, so we could leave your cars in the lot, and take the van, and the designated driver (yes, we have one-yay!) to go to other tasting rooms. The van will be available Saturday, for hauling purchases,  possibly tired feet, or chauffeuring folks that have had too much tasting.  (Trust me, this could happen!)

We will be getting up to Murphy’s in the afternoon on Friday.  A list of names will be given to the hotel, so please say that you are on the room list for VintaCon.  

Itinerary so far…

Friday

Travel, check in, etc., and the universally famous registration check in!  Dinner plans are loose at this point, whoever shows up we’ll get a group together around 6ish.

Afterwards (around 9ish) we will have “Scary Wine” tasting in the Con Suite.  Please, no bad wine (eg: two buck chuck), just Scary (label, vintage…), and gaming will ensue.  As usual, we’ll have our Apples to Apples with us.

Saturday

Morning:  11 a.m.  Meet in Con Suite for wine tasting and instructions for a “contest”.  Winner(s) will receive a special prize package!

Evening after wine tasting and a rest break:  Wine maker’s dinner.  We don’t have the time nor cost down yet, but we will be getting back to you shortly.  Please email me if you have not indicated an interest for this.  We are trying to keep it at $75 p/p.

SWEETS (if dinner isn’t too much of an overload) after dinner.  Bring your sweet selection!

Sunday: After check out we will be available to escort you to our select number of tasting rooms off Main Street.  We have arrangements with some, and if we get through our list, we’ll try to make it to others.  We will come back to the hotel by 4:30ish if that is doable.

Questions, concerns, let me know!!!
