We'll be bringing the full team, I am glad to see the US Open in good hands. Also worth mentioning, this will be Nick Landes' first showing as a co-director, I think it will be a good team of Zeb and Sidekick. The float trip will be a blast for sure.

Flights purchased, registration submitted. Is there an official list of who is coming? Like based off of registrations? That'd make it easier for people to coordinate hotel rooms.

Zeb Jackson · Post by **Zeb Jackson** » 22 Apr 2011 12:29

ill add a list of people who have registered or bought plane tickets thus far on the front page

I'm on the "maybe" list, as well as the 100% attending. I'm tricky like that.

janis · Post by **janis** » 04 May 2011 03:40

Put me on the maybe list.

Updates updates updates!

Gold's Gym is now a premier sponsor for the event.

Idaho Pizza company is sponsoring us with a discounted all you can eat buffet meal on Saturday night at their restaurant (its close to the event site).

I really encourage players to get rooms at the hotel my house,Zac's house, and sunny's house are all fairly distant from each other (and very distant to the event site (about 20 minutes from my house) and the hotel is literally 2-3 blocks from the event site and they will provide transportation! That way people can all interact with each other rather than separating at the end of the night to each house or w/e.

please if you plan on attending and you know you are going to come fill out the preregistration form, you dont have to pay money right now, infact you can pay it at the event site the morning of (see the schedule on the first post), but it would be nice to get a clear bearing on how many shirts we will need to make in the months leading up to the event.

the event is looking better and better everyday!

If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Hotel room booked for Friday and Saturday nights. PM me if interested in rooming with me.
