The latest is that unless a few more people pony up $ to attend, it's limited t
the number of spots already announced.

All available spots are taken. We couldn't get enough confirmed people to move to a larger room, so in all likelihood, this event is now closed to new attendees.

Okay, I've managed to secure a larger room at the same location if I need it, but I need 9 CONFIRMED people in 48 hours (Friday @ noon CST) to make the numbers work.
With that, please pay if you know you can come. If we don't get the 9 necessary, your money will be refunded. The payment link is below.

So far, I have zero takers on the expansion of spots. I'll probably leave the limit where it is if response doesn't pick up by this afternoon.

The people on the waitlist are dropping out like flies. I don't have enough remaining to make the numbers, so I'm leaving the numbers as they are.
Motorskills - please let me know about your +1, we still have space for her.

Great event, thanks to CJ et al for making the arrangements. My non-flying +1 very much enjoyed herself as well.
Great turnout from CO, as usual, really neat to get their feedback and hear their tales from the trenches.
Food was good, location was fine.
The room was a little small, which didn't affect the meal per se, but - exacerbated by the dinnerparty on the other side of the partition - did make the acoustics problematic, very hard to hear anyone not sat next to you, and we couldn't roam around afterwards like we could at the last place.
Luckily the people all around us were fantastic to talk to, so no major downer.

Thanks to everyone who came out! We did have a great turnout with 20 total people.
We'll take all the feedback received to date and be sure to use it to improve the spring event.
