It's official. There is going to be TV exposure leading up to the event.

I just got off the phone with Kelly Banks at A-Channel Edmonton, and we're going to be on the morning show (The Big Breakfast) for two segments. Once nearing the tournament date, and once in about two weeks.

Hopefully the first one will spark some interest and increase attendance at the tournament. :)

March 18th, Edmonton.

Torontonians (thats not nearly as cool as it should be),

Right now (until MAr 18) if you book with Jetsgo to come to shrEdmonton, they have their 1 way 1 penny sale. Thats right. Full fare going home, but coming here its 1 penny plus tax. So book now and come to the better side of the country.

Cheers

I'll see...I don't have a capture card though.

And if I suck it up then I don't want you to see! :D heh

I'll get a copy from them for sure, or just tape it at home...if you come up maybe we'll have an opportunity to play it.



And you're damn right you're coming to Edmonton. That was the deal, just ask Evan. ;)

SATURDAY morning, yo. Remember, convocation? I mean, we could leave Friday night at 10pm, if you'd prefer that. :/

I figure we'll say 7 hours to get there. Might be less, but let's say 7. That means that the earliest we could get there is maybe 4am Saturday Morning.

Where would we go once we arrived at 4am?

I think we need to sit at the dinner table and resolve our problems over some hot chocolate and cookies.

Friday, for me, would mean I'd have to miss school. As much as I would like that, my parents would not (and the homework thing really blows). Saturday morning/Friday evening would be the best bet for me, though I understand why Ben would want to get their sooner rather than later.

So, I'll bring the table to our next session. Ben, you got the cookies? Kevin, we need some milk and Rory will supply the chocolate powder :)

Nah, I think Ben's decided that we're leaving Friday Evening.

I mean, it's either that or I don't go. :?

Heya,

Maybe it will just be me and you in intermediate. What qualifies as intermediate? ;) Kevin? Yes the Tourney is still and June and that truly sucks about JetsGo. Oh well, what do you do!
