Jumpgate - sorry to hear you will not be able to attend.

Mrs. Italy and I will still attend arriving late on 9 April and departing around noon on 11 April. We've seen the list of hotels and were wondering if any Hilton properties been identified?

Will you let me know here and/or at FFOCUS whether or not you will be there? I am trying to figure out where to have lunch and dinner on Saturday and I will probably need the numbers for reservations. Thanks!

I was a maybe and sadly must now confirm in the negative. Sorry I can't make it, and look forward to visiting the Tri Cities another time.

Thank you for letting me know. And I apologize that the activity in this thread "died" for a while.

Is there an official schedule set for this DO yet?

I'm going to fly to TYS, see a friend, then drive up to TRI.

While I don't want you to remove me yet, it is looking doubtful at this time.

You can't non-rev to TRI for the day? I can't believe you'd want to miss BBQ or meeting scoow, our travel safety and security forum moderator! :eek:
