Bash Committee

Who is going? Mr Loriely and myself is going, Sounds like fun,

I am going it sounds fantastic if you look at the website, they have some great speakers including plastic surgeons who sit and speak to patients. I went to the first one and it was amazing

I would love to go... but I highly doubt it will happen. Up 'til how soon before can we still register?

You can register right up into May, as long as your registration form and payment gets there prior to all the specific bash stuff being put together, the committee is happy. Basically they need the payment and the registration form we have some stuff that gets put together for each person and that has to be arranged based on numbers etc.

If you live in the west end and the hotel and bash are too much just come to the bash part and skip the hotel. I am sure you will be able to change for dinner etc in someones room, if you need to you can use mine.

Hi there,

Dr. Barry Simon wants to do an amazing talk for us this year at the

bash so he has asked me to pose this question to all of you and he

will incorporate the answers into his talk. Please forward your

answers to the following email address - canadianbandsterbash @

rogers. com (please take out the spaces)

What is the single, most difficult psychological or behavioral

challenge of living with a band?

Thanks so much for your participation in making this a great event!!

take care

I am going to be there too!!

So very excited my first time to Canada

Yea Colleen looking forward to meeting you... it will be awesome

Can I register at the door? Just not sure how I will be feeling, I am being banded on May 2.

Susan,

I will ask the committee, I am thinking possibly not because we have to have all the meals etc determined for the hotel. I understand you will still be on liquids or mushies. I can say by the end of the month you should be up to the bash unless you react really badly to surgery.

I will try and get the last date you can register for the bash and post it here.

Thanks Susie. I was thinking of going just to the seminars during the day, but skipping the dinner.

Argon,

I haven't forgotten about you I am still working on your answer and will post it when I get it

Argon,

I got your answer this morning the last day to register is around 7 days prior to the event so we can notify catering of final numbers. Keep in mind that it is not just the dinner, there are Snacks and lunch during the seminars for the people who attend.

With that said if you can't make up your mind until after that the bash committee will try and accomodate you as best they can.

Just a reminder only barely... five weeks until the bash!!!! We are having great speakers and it is always a blast..

If you are booking into the hotel please reserve your room now, as of May 1 any rooms in our block not reserved will be released and the hotel is completely booked for that weekend.
