Current planning ideas: I want to see if there is a convenient space around the hotel that is easily accessible and not a restaurant, since a) splitting the check between 20+ people gives me a headache, b) it's hard to talk like that, and c) maybe some people going to the meet do not want to buy dinner? Any suggestions re: good spaces would be awesome. If someone has a room and is willing to host, that would also be awesome!

Also, once there is a date/time, I want to make flyers and pass them out! I will probably be fine making the flyers and putting them on tables, but I am terrible at approaching people I do not already know, so may put out a call for volunteers to help spread the word, both online and at the con.

The Trek show is the same weekend and since I'm working it, FOGCon is out for me.
