| | | It does look like June is winning. HOwever, before I go forth with officially changing it......
Can the two people that voted NO please PM me and explain why? Is it a personal conflict or something else? Anyone else can PM me any other reasons to not change it as well. I just want to get the date 100% set and not hurt anyone's feelings. I should have the final decision by the end of this week.

I don't want to say at this time we are doing this followed by this and then this. I'm not making a diabetes boot camp, lol. Once we get to planning I just plan on maybe planning a breakfast or dinner somewhere. Maybe a trip somewhere. Then the rest will be open. People can make plans the night before of where they want to go together and it can either be all of us or 5 little groups.

| | I have the same feeling. I may come out for the whole week, I may just do a couple days. And either way, I might be likely to bring my b/f, my sister and BIL too, so I'll spend a bit of my time with the DF fam and the rest with my other fam.

| | | I guess I'm a little behind on this....
Yes, the date is being changed to.... June 24-June 29
As for me booking yet. I may book my hotel this week. All most require is a downpayment of 1 night and that is full refundable if you cancel at least 48 hours before. I think I'll be staying at the Excalibur and I'll have two queen beds, so if anyone wants to share and split the hotel room cost some let me know.
As for flight, I'm not sure. **** bankruptcies and mergers have me kinda worried. And flight tickets are generally not refundable unless you pay for that option upfront which costs alot more.

| | I booked my ticket and hotel. I'll be there the June 23'rd (Friday) to June 28 (Wednesday) and got a suite. I am going on the 23rd because my soon to be brother-in-law is having a bachelor party Friday night.
I am booking a golf game through Desert Pines and get a free club rental. I'll be bringing my clubs so Kev if you want to use them or anyone else please let me know. I gotta get in a round out there.
I also got tickets to the titanic museum thing. Which now looks pretty lame in hindsight, but it and the shark reef at mandalay bay were not much extra when booking through expedia and anything to detour me from gambling is good.
God please let me win out there cause I really need to cover my costs on this! If I do loose give me the strength to not believe "I can make it back".

| | Brian, the 23rd falls on a Saturday so you might want to check your ticket again. We wouldn't want you missing that party now would we?

| | | I have my hotel all booked, still searching for a flight. I haven't looked at events to do but I'm hoping to see at least one show and go to one nightclub. I think if I do a show it won't be till I get there and go to the coke bottle (it's a ticket booth where any last minute tickets if available are sold at 50% off.)
Brian, on the golf thing, when do you plan on playing? Depending on what time of day you plan on I may or may not play. Just because of the rates. And yes, I won't mind the heat, I'll just bring a sport bottle and drink 20 gallons of water.
