Kathy, let us know if you will be renting a van. It might be nice, and not have another episode like last yr. XD Plus if there's a good amount of us, it'll be cheaper for all! I'm all signed up on the mailing list for a room too! ^_^ I'm excited already!

So, it looks like the cheapest van rental would be ~$215 for a minivan for the whole trip (max seven people). Is this worth it? Would we want to fill it, or leave empty seats? For five people, it'd be about an extra $40 in addition to gas and tolls; for seven, an extra $30.
(I went ahead and reserved it anyway. We have to cancel at least 48 hours before July 23rd at noon if we don't want it.)

Hmmm... Y'know I dunno if it is. I know me and Jen are definitly riding with you. That leaves 2 seats left. Maybe Nick and Emma will need rides with us? Alyssa is still in the air. I can't think of anyone else who'd need a ride with us. And it's really hard to say momentarily. Especially since we don't wanna book it now and then have no one else ride and then we're stuck with a big bill. On the other hand, we don't wanna not book it incase more people need rides? At the moment, I'd say no, thinking of who in our group is going/needs rides.
But you know what, whatever you feel is best Kathy. ^_^ I trust your judgment.

Josh, Schuyler, and the rest of them are going separate. They've already told me they're doing their own thing.

You can ask them, but Schyuler said hes getting his own room b/c they're gonna have TONS of stuff apparently for their artist table.

Well for Jen's input, she feels a van is not necessary. But again its up to kathy.

I figured I might as well reserve it, because it's no loss as long as we cancel in advance, and this way we can have it if we want it after all.
