MangoCon Is official!
-
Letchworth in September could be pretty, depending on how much the leaves have turned. I'd bet Niagara Falls will win though...
-
You might be surprised, LSP is so much more low key and different.
-
Spouses and families get upset when people come back with "I visited Niagara Falls" but "We went to a state park" you can downplay a bit more.
-
And I guarantee that every NYer will vote for LSP.
-
So excited about this!

I haven't been to Letchworth in probably 15 years. But Grand Canyon of the East and NY in the fall? Hellz yeah!
-
looks like around 450 round trip from down here.
-
@scottalanmiller @RojoLoco anyone who is passing through the Cleveland area, or any other part of NE Ohio, we can totally setup a carpool! It's only like a 3 and a half hour drive. Keep in mind though, we will be stopping in Buffalo at Paula's Doughnuts, on the way. So it may turn into a 4 hour excursion. Also tack on extra time for any other random shenanigans we may end up in...
-
@hubtechagain That's not too bad for me to get to Austin and back is about $550 from here.
-
Looks like I will be coming in from Quebec City.

Some questions:
-
What is the time frame on an agenda?
-
Are you looking for people to run sessions, and if so what is necessary to be considered?
-
What are the benefits for teaching (other than LI bling)?

It's being discussed and a few topics are in rough outline now. So details will be starting to emerge over the next month or two. I know that two speakers are lined up and a third is being spoken to that I know about.

@Minion-Queen for those of us who won't be needing a hotel is there a price difference, just an admission pass?
-
The admissions pass will be the same price for everyone.
-
@Minion-Queen Thank you for confirming!
-
Admissions covers: 3 meals a day, snacks, coffee, tea, pop etc. and happy hour each day.
-
Pop is soda, to those of you from "everywhere but upstate NY."
