Ogfest Update
Ogfest is coming together. Yes, I know it's still four months away, but I'm not one to wait until the very last minute to pull things together.
Here are the details as we know them.
Date: The weekend of July 7th & 8th
Location: Naperville IL
Closest Airport: Midway (Chicago)
I am currently finishing up negotiations with the Naperville Holiday Inn Select. We'll have a variety of rooms (and rates) available in a block for the entire weekend. We'll have a suite available for hangin' out in, a bar (of course), resturant and pool. Location wise it's a shuttle away from the airport and has lots of options entertainment wise.
I really need to know if you are thinking about coming. Reason being, I am working very hard to get GREAT rates for the rooms. So if you REALLY THINK you might make it and will need a room, please either leave me a comment or drop me a note at tammisworld(at)gmail(dot)com.
We're planning a nice relaxing dinner for Friday night and a great meal for Saturday. Og is planning on takin' folks to the shooting range and Downtown Chicago is just a hop, skip and a jump away.
Plus - there'll be bloggers there. Great bloggers. Wonderful conversation. Laughter. Yeah, it'll be a very good time.
So - I'll post about this again as soon as the room rates are finalized. But if you're seriously thinking you can make it....please, let me know.

Why do they always chose "July 4th" weekend?
If I have a job by then (crossing fingers and praying) we will be on vacation that week.
If I don't have a job I don't think it's right for me to be spending money on a trip.
Agh!!!!!!
