Not to be devil's advocate, but be aware that playing footbag net on campus without RIT knowledge and approval puts you in jeopardy of being asked to tear down your nets and leave the campus by campus security or campus safety.
I would prefer it that you call RIT and ask for information regarding "public" places on RIT in which you may engage in recreational activities. It does not concern me how you describe your activities, only that you notify RIT that you will be there. It is always better to be a welcomed guest than a traspasser.
The Rochester Footbag Association currently holds weekly shred sessions on the RIT campus. On rare occasions we have been asked to relocate, usually when a building is closed or closing, and we have done so without resistance. After years of utilizing campus grounds and buildings for shred sessions we have always maintained a positive image of footbag. I hope we can maintain this positive image with GRASS 2008.
Now make the call and get NET at GRASS 2008!

I just remembered something.
I have double sessions of crew durring spring break and i have a reggatta that weekend. If i wasnt captain of the varisty team and the top boat i would deffinatly tell coach that i had a family event but this time around unfortuantly, I cannot do that. I'm so sorry guys, but i really can't come to GRASS this year.

I changed my bus ticket's departure time from NYC, and it looks like I'll be seeing you guys on the 18th around 9-10 pm.
Can't wait to see everyone there.
It sucks to hear that you're not attending this year's GRASS, Ben. I'll be sure to stitch you up that bag you want.
Oh, and Johnny, do you guys still have space for me? It seems Adrienne might not be making the trip.

I'll be submitting two prize bags: One from myself, and one from Hania Mickiewicz (due to a technical error).

I'll have bags for sale, but probably two or three at most besides reserved orders.
