Daytona - Dates and who's going?

[rabernet]

Adam,

I know you told me last night the dates, but I neglected to write them down.

Does anyone know the dates for Daytona this year? I want to go ahead and turn in my PTO request here at work. I'm afraid if I wait, they'll tell me that we're doing mid-quarter inventory that weekend, and I want to get it approved before they set those dates.

Also, who's planning on going?

At least if I turn in the PTO request, I'm a little more committed than before! LOL

August 18-20

I'm planning/hoping to go. I already got the time off of work. My fellow blue tongue skink buddies on www.bluetongueskinks.net are planning a little get together to meet one another.

I hope things work out and I can go.

[rabernet]

Thank you! Well, it turns out, WE'RE doing mid-quarter inventory that weekend, and of course, the job can't function without Robin in attendance. (just a wee bit bitter about it). I haven't gotten a resounding "no" yet, but I've definitely gotten push-back and the lecture about being a team player.

Oh that sucks Robin! I hope you do get the time off though. We won't be going to Daytona this year but are hoping to attend the big Chicago show in the fall of 06.

when is that fall chicago show? i've never been to a larger event before

[tigerlily]

I may go, but haven't made it a definite decision. I've got family in Daytona, so I could visit them, and go to the snake show all in one trip. Just need to kick myself in the butt.

My only question when I looked at the Daytona site is this....the wristbands are $10.00 to get into both Saturday and Sunday but there's no mention of the costs to attend the Friday night symposium?

[Adam_Wysocki]

We'll be there of course.

Jo, as far as I know information about Friday isn't publically available yet. I think they have some details to iron out still.

Thanks Adam, I just went by what was put up so far on their website.

Wonder if I can sell a kidney or something before August LOL. (it's not like they are doing all that much and heck I got two of em! )
