I think there will be water fountains scattered around the park, but I would like to present another question: where is the event site specifically located at Disneyworld? We could map out some nifty areas around the area if we want a quick bite and whatever. Maybe a prominent shady spot in the outdoors?

The event is in the MILK HOUSE. Go to the disney website and look at the sports resort. I'm sure we can walk around and find a nice shaded place outside... but the event isn't in the theme park.

Bring lots of water. Don't expect to find cheap bottles of water there. I'm sure they will have water fountains... but bring your sports bottles to refill them. Florida in August is going to be hot as hell. Better to be prepared than dehydrate.

Brian and I originally bought tickets to the normal park. But we rethought that idea and switched them to Typhoon Lagoon tickets yesterday.

Evan Gatesman, Jeff Overbo, Zeb Jackson, Kyle Hewitt, and I are staying in a Terra Verde home. It can hold at least 6 people. We are non-smoking and low partying. So if 1 or 2 people need a place to stay, hit me up with a pm.

You mean the link to download the PDF file to get your parent's signature? Yes, Julie apparently had newlines after the URL but before the close-URL tag.

So, I fixed that -- it should work. Please try again.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure they're these:

You can order them separately here:
http://worldfootbag.com/catalog2/show/176

Note that the image for the long-sleeve version there is busted. (I'll let them know.) But it should be the same design just long-sleeve.. I'm pretty sure, at least.

Also, note that the image isn't great. Somewhere I have a higher-resolution color version. Maybe someone else will find it and upload it and/or point to it.

If anyone needs a ride from the airport when they get to Orlando, let me know, and I'll help you out. I've got about 12 people I'm helping now and I can probably help as many as ask. The sooner you email me, the better. Email me at:

[email protected]


I repeat, IF YOU'LL NEED A RIDE FROM THE AIRPORT, EMAIL ME ASAP.


Hope this helps people

PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

It would be so cheap for someone to stay with us, and the hotel is like a 2 second walk from the event site!

PLEASE!

I actually heard you need a car to get from the hotel to the event site because there is a big gap of water between them. Although they may be seperated by a mile in real distance, it is more like a 4 mile walk. I heard this from Goldberg on the phone the other night. I hope he's wrong for people staying at the hotel.

Just saying, its not 2 seconds.
