NetworkJC 2007 - Vegas (dates/hotel finalized)

[Kristie]

We've decided that NJC 2007 would be best played using October 21-23, 2007 in Las Vegas.

It's a Sunday - Tuesday, which will provide cheaper hotel rates, hopefully easier non-rev access into/out of the city, less "crowd", a guaranteed Allegiant Airlines Tour on Tuesday and overall, more hang with your JC friends time.

We're also going to work on trying to get Sim lessons again as well as Mock Airline Interviews...

what we'd like everyone to do is stash away $20-$50/month so that the cost of the hotel/travel/expenses doesn't overwhelm you when October rolls around. You have roughly 10 months to save up the money needed...i'd roughly guesstimate you'll need about $500-$600 for hotel/expenses alone (being overly conservative)

We tried to see if we could set up a type of reserve bank account but we figured out that probably wouldn't work, so we think everyone stashing money away in a cookie jar, between mattresses, in a savings account, what have you, between now and September/October will work out better for everyone in the long run. Start looking for travel prices NOW, don't wait till September.

I will be trying to acquire group room rates due to overwhelming demand... and I'll let you know what i find.

Doug and I might go up for the weekend (why the heck not), so if anyone wants to show up early by all means, have some fun!

I'm thinking of holding the official event (in the Bellagio) on Sunday night. It'll be able to accomodate those who can only do the weekend and it might be a nice change of pace to hold it the 1st evening we're all in town...anyone have thoughts on this? I'm open to opinion....

anyone have any input thus far?

We are also planning for a NetworkJC in Chicagoland this spring... currently have a poll of dates up at JC. you can access the link here if you want to vote in the poll (yes, you have to register first).
