I have been spending all my free time trying to work out things for our freind Craig/LED Museum. Now that his condition is stable, it's time to get to work on the CPF Get Together .
First off, the Get Together is planned for Saturday Night, Feb 15, the third day of the Shot Show.
For those wondering, Peter G has taken care of the issue of show passes. Prior to Jan 1, 2003, the registration fee is $15 dollars, there after $50. Needless to say, if your are planning on attending the Show, its better to register earlier than later... there is lots and lots to see; I would reccommed planing for a couple of days just to see the show. Beside that, Orlando has tons of attractions (Disney World, Epcot, MGM Studios, Universal.... one could easily spend 2 weeks in Orlando, and not see everything the city has to offer).
The Get Together is/has been in the planning stages for the last few months. There will be food (good stuff, not cold cut deli platters), there will be us CPF members, and there will be some manufactrues/vendors. Trying to work out some fun things like drawings for your favorite lights just as an example. Sorry cannot reveal all the "plans"; surprises are more fun!
Now down to business... for this to work, we need an accurate head count. Who needs rooms, who needs air, who wants rental cars etc etc. If we structure the deal correctly, we can get the hotel/motel to kick in a meeting room for our party (and maybe more). If we can avoid this expense, we can spend the money on better food, better prizes, whatever. On air fare it might possible be able to get a GROUP RATE, etc
NOW is the time to put this together, so please check your calendars
