... So I guess those who already sent their SASE's have or will soon be receiving them... However, there are no new forms on the official website as yet (Monday, May 14.)
The only guests listed so far are Mr. Frid, Lara Parker, Kathryn Leigh Scott, and Marie Wallace, with others "to be announced." Goodness, I certainly HOPE John Karlen can come-- it wouldn't seem right to commemorate JF's 40th DS anniversary without him, and I don't know when they saw each other last.... It would be VERY nice (and probably a bit teary for some of us) if they were reunited for the occasion. Heck, if that happens, I'm bringing a whole box of Kleenex (or suitable generic substitute)!!!
Oh, well, whatever... I know everyone wants to see the $$$ breakdown. No real surprises here:
"Celebration Rate" (Friday August 17, Saturday Aug. 18) $ 30 p/ Adult
"Celebration Rate" Friday (6 PM-- Midnight) $ 15 p/ Adult
"Celebration Rate" Saturday (11 AM-- 7 PM) $ 20 p/ Adult
Banquet with the Stars (Saturday, 7 PM-- 10 PM) $ 60 p/ person
Lyndhurst Trip (Friday, 11 AM-- 4 PM) $ 20 p/ person (includes shuttle transportation & admission to grounds & mansion)
Children ages 6--12, half price
"Above Festival membership payment must be received by mail by August 10, thereafter at the door only. Please include 2 self-addressed, stamped envelopes with payment. (etc.) Please include aname and address of each person for whom you are paying. (etc.)" (You probably know the rest.)
(P.S., D.F. reminds you that postage is now 41 cents, as of today. Grrrrrrrrr.....)
The rest is the usual list of DS products.
That's my story and I'm stickin' to it.... Hoping to see as many of you all there as can come, in spite of some of the reduced con-time.
