'''Sorry, the event is full!''' We were forced to set a limit of 48 persons due to that's the max number of folks that will fit into two party buses, plus we don't want to overwhelm the staffs at the breweries. There is, however, is a waitlist that someone started below.

'''There is a max of 48 persons for this event. Sorry!'''
I'll try to monitor the waitlist and add folks automatically if someone else drops out. Would be a good idea to specify an email address or some other means of contact so that I can notify you if you make it in.
===== Paid, but can't go list ===== # Cary Gordon (hip hoppist) - '''refunded''' == Non-beer-related Tuesday night activities (as if that were desired) == === Dinner at Somewhere Other Than the Laughing Seed === Meet in the hotel lobby at 6pm. I (Julia) am going to try to call and make reservations during the afternoon break; check back after break for updates. UPDATE: The Laughing Seed is closed on Tuesday. Whoops. Let's meet in the lobby at 6pm and figure out a plan from there. What about: Rosetta's Kitchen http://rosettaskitchen.com/# Julia Bauder# Emily Lynema (Julia, I might be running a few minutes late if we can not make the res. right at 6pm if possible). (JB: Sure, I was going to make the reservations for 6:30, to give us time to gather up and walk down there.)# Gwen Exner# David Woodbury# Ed CorradoSusan Teague-Rector# Jonathan RochkindErin White# Sean ChenAdam Rogers

* Thursday:
** <s>Erik M. and I (Ray Schwartz) will be running to Riverside Cemetery. 1 1/2 mile to the cemetery. Around the cemetery and back--3.6 miles total.
