NYC or bust ?

[Johns]

We had reservations in Las Vegas for the Vision Expo West, but of course, Sept 11... I'm considering taking some of the staff to NYC for the east show instead of waiting until September for Vegas again. I always like Vegas because it's so laid back and casual, but I'd like to go to NYC just to show my support for the whole city. How many Optiboarders will be going to NY ?

[Joann Raytar]

If nothing changes, I'll be going.

[Bev Heishman]

Will be there. Teaching several courses.

[Joann Raytar]

Bev,

What courses are you teaching?

Are any other OptiBoarders going to be teaching courses?

[Homer]

Tickets purchased, hotel reservations made, presentations polished.

Hi you guys,

I'll be there (teaching courses on Thur and Fri) and playing in the city Sat. and Sunday.

Anyone want to get together for Expo stuff or shopping in the city let me know!

How about the Essilor party on Friday night??? : ) : )

For those folk who will be attending,

Don't forget if you pre-register for the exhibits it is free; it costs $40 if you don't and you register at the door.

Here is the link to the Vision Expo website if you want to pre-register online:

Will be there. Actually will be at that home for at least ten days. We'd love to host a little cocktail gathering and then dutch for dinner at our chef son's place of employment. Opia at 57th and Lex. Let me know if anyone would enjoy this.

HELLO EVERYONE,
JO THANK YOU FOR THE LINK. JUST REGISTERED ON-LINE.
I'M ORIGIANLLY FROM NY AND HAVE BEEN AWAY FOR 5 YEARS NOW. WHAT BETTER TIME TO GO HOME THAN EXPO TIME!
I CAN SEE THE FAMILY AND GET MY CEC'S! LOOKING FOWARD
TO MEETING AS MANY OF YOU GUYS AS POSSIBLE. NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD GO TO ANOTHER EXPO IN NEW YORK AFTER I
MOVED TO LAS VEGAS BUT I THINK NEW YORK NEEDS OUR SUPPORT A LOT MORE THESE DAYS. IT'S VERY SLOW HERE ALSO BUT FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THE CITY IS A GHOST TOWN. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF EVERYONE THAT WAS ABLE TO ATTEND THE SHOW IN NEW YORK WOULD MAKE THE TRIP. WE NEW YORKER'S
ARE STRONG BUT EVEN THE STRONG NEED HELP FROM TIME TO TIME.

For those of you who didn't order your OptiBoard Polo Shirts, here is a tag for you to print, cut out and tape on. That way it will be easier for us to spot each other; I figure it will be fun to meet other members who are at VE East.
