| | Some bad news Well due to my promotion at work, I am now not going to be able to attend the Meet and Greet. I will have a new class of new hires starting in January and another in May. So I will not be able to take the time off work.

Me moving the date, No. The City decides when they are going to give the Civil service test and then send the letter to my Chain of Command who decide when they are going to start a new class. Our Academy last 8 weeks then I move them out into the room for the CTO program that last 22 weeks. So I have the new hires in training for 30 weeks.
Anyone want a job? We are only 30 some people short!
Thanks all!

| | | Jim, Jedi was talking about moving the date to June since it was the second most popular vote. I will agree on anything at this point. If a June date will add a few more people to the event then put me down.

| | I could definitely do the June date, since the one public school child is out of school then.  |

It looks like if we do that, it will be June 17th. Or the week before or after. Anyone want to add any input on Jun 10th, 17th, or 24th. 10th may be too early because of school for some. So it appears either the 17th or 24th. The 24th if a few bucks more a night, it appears about $5-$10 more.
So...input anyone?
Cyborg? Jeggeman? Gettingby? Rikki? (you are the 4 that come to mind when I think May vs. June, sorry anyone I'm leaving off)
