Coachella 2006

[Not Afraid]

Well, if it is at DCA.........

Yes, April 30th is the target date, though things aren't 100% until we officially announce it. But I would say it is 80%.

It is in April because many of the primary people in putting together the game (including me) will be in Japan in the middle of March.

Any chance of having the 2007 event on Sun 6 May

What's wrong with the 23rd?

I really don't want to have to make this decission.

Anaheim schools are out April 17-21, as are half of the surrounding school districts. April 23 attendance is expected to be very high.

Also, we would have difficulty staffing the event fully on the 23rd. April 23 is our second choice date but we'll only go to it if something makes April 30 an impossibility.
