Festival Order Form and Pre-Fest event?

Does any one know when the 2010 festival order form will be posted? I was able to get a flight on on Jet Blue from JFK to Burbank that gets in around 11am the 16th. Anybody know what the special pre-fest event going on in the afernoon is? I got the Hertz club gold 50% off with my AAA membership so I should be able to pick up my rent car without waiting in line and then it is a very very short drive to the hotel Marriott. I sill wish i had a good excuse to drive the 2800 miles in my Honda Civic.

I am also wondering about the registration forms for the festival and dinner.  Usually they are sent out much earlier in the year.  I sent a SASE to the festival, but haven't heard from anyone.

Most often the West Coast Fest mailings are sent out around the end of March/the beginning of April. Though I recall that in '05 it went out in the beginning of May.

Thank you!   I guess I'm just a little too anxious and/or afraid of missing the dinner.

BTW, MUGGYY - it's nice to see you posting. Please join in more when you can.
