Excellent... see you there, Mandarb! Just let me know if you'll be bringing any guests. Thanks!

It's on the calendar now, have to put in a request at work to get the day off. I'll be a plus one if I can do this.

too far for me enjoy the event

Dang only minutes from my home,
but can't ditch the job.
I'll let you know if things can be altered.

Cheers.

I want so very much to attend.. but I'm not available that weekend. Very, very sad... uke on without me!

I think this is on for me.

Sounds Like Fun

I would love to go but have a prior commitment. Is there a way to be on an email list with date and time for next year's event? Chris

I still don't have that week's schedule but I am very likely on board for this. Meanwhile, my boyfriend was contacted about this event elsewhere, so it's definitely calling us if I'm free.
