I strongly second this one. The Federal Government lists President's Day as Monday, February 18, so perhaps Sunday, February 17?

While there is nothing going on special that day, the next day is President's Day celebration:

Quote:

President's Day:
Come mingle with our Founding Fathers during the 16th annual President's Day Celebration at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum on February 18, 2008 from 10:00am until 3:00pm. This celebration includes fun for the whole family, including children's discovery areas, arts and crafts, scavenger hunts, and presidential and first lady look-alikes. A patriotic concert will be performed by the Los Robles Children's Choir. Finish your day by viewing the Ferdinand Magellan Presidential Train.

Hot Dogs, cherry pie, and other all-American food will be available for purchase. Free parking and shuttle pick-up along Presidential Drive will be available. All President's Day activities are free (except to see the Ferdinand Magellan Train, which is inside the exhibits). Museum adimission applies to view the exhibits. For more information, please call 800-410-8354.

However, I am not sure how many people would be able to go on a Monday (I know I don't get the day off).

Pricing and hours are:

Hmmm... I wonder if this would be incentive to get Leo to come out?

Leo at a swanking? Wanna invoke any OTHER horsemen of the apocalypse while you're at it? ;)

But seriously Leo, when are you going to get out here for a swanking?

Ugh, we need to start a separate Yosemite Camping thread. If, by some chance, we want Valley campsite, ressies must be made soon.

(And I only suggest that because I think Yosemite newbs should camp in the Valley ... and my prime impetus for returning to Yosemite is to introduce it to the outlandish and unacceptable number of Yosemite newbs.)

2008 Swanking Idea Thread

No camping for me no...any swanking that is on the weekend is almost always out due to work...traveling anywhere outside a few hours can't do either lack of funds and time off from work (all my time off is in April for Bon Jovi and then again in July)....have fun whatever you decide to do...i might be able to do a Griffith Park Swanking depends if i have that Sunday off from work or not...

So Far we have:

Griffith Park
Regan Library
Yosemite camping
Nominated Shorts (not to be confused with NirvanaMan's shorts)

Some more suggestions:
Beach camping
Bonfire(s)
A movie at the El Cap and then H&H?
Napa Rose as a group (we can all dress up and look pretty)

mmg: the good news is that there are always the impromptu midweek "movie night" type swankings available as well :)

Definitely need to do another beach bonfire!

Can I add in Flashback? Seeing as Sadako and I will be in it this year, and I guess performers are also responsible for peddling tix (Flashback is a show starring park CMs that helps raise money for charity, btw). So expect to hear from me once they start talking about that. Flashback is at the end of February.

When is the LoT (non Skype) orgy?
