At this point in time, please add me to the list +1.

I attended in 2007 and I really liked the library location.

We'll try to be there -- if we're in town that weekend -- though I thought the 2008 location was better.

Please put us down as 2 maybes

Airfare booked for $149!!! I liked the location we were at last year a lot better than the library! The ease of parking made it very nice! Looking forward to seeing all my AA friends. Last DO I was able to trade Geoffco for a much needed item - you never know what you will get or learn. This DO is a must!

I've always been amazed at the difference in value I have in a much needed item and my wife does.

We've even had discussions that have gone,"You don't know this, but this is really important to you."

Yes and when my wife got her first upgrade thanks to the trade (meaning we both rode up front on DL instead of just her) she started to see the light!

I may well be there.

I will definitely be there if you can upgrade the quality of the lackluster speakers that you have.

Actually I was hoping to be able to cross paths with Ingy in SA but our schedules are off by a week or two. I really don't need to listen to him talk but I certainly want to exchange experiences with him.

We plan to be there (2 of us) - Mr. travelingmore and I look forward to hearing the speakers and meeting other FTers. Thanks for the opportunity!

Please add me to the list.....I'll Be there. Always enjoy the great exchange of ideas and interesting discussion.

I happen to prefer last year's location (Township Hall) since it offered no hassle parking and was easier to get to and from without all of the Art Fair traffic.

However, I understand the appeal of the Art Fair to those from out of town.

Count me in!

I really loved the location last year because of the ease of parking. Trying to find free parking in downtown AA during Art Fair is tough.

For those who haven't been at past events held at the library, a good option to avoid the downtown parking is to park at Briarwood Mall (there are other park & ride locations, too) and take the bus downtown. It's only a few minute's ride and relatively cheap. And you never have to worry about where you parked your car.

Personally, I hope to make it again this year. Bikeguy always throws a great event, and it's always a blast to meet old friends and make new ones.
