-the best days to fly in and out
-if I have to get my own room or if I can get in on the sharing of a room at the Omni (too much good has been said about the Omni that Im dying to stay there...though if you're offering free space to me elsewhere, let me know  )
-if anyone can get me to & from the airport (once the dates are established)...or how expensive it is to get to the airport via other means.
IRI this year is taking the place of Nationals for me, in as much as I want to see as many people as possible...some of you who I havent seen since 2002, many of you whom Ive never met. So, to make sure this is financially feasible for me, I need info ASAP. Thanks

Last year, many people flew in to IRI on Thursday. This is setup day for us, and many people were hanging around the gym. DJ and I both made trips to the airport to pick people up on Thursday. We even had an enjoyable time waiting around for Ashlee Snodgrass as she was having flight trouble.
Leaving town on Sunday works out well, but rides need to be coordinated for those people who are flying out. Libby Ritchie, Scott Ritchie and Chris Fultz coordinated a ride to the airport on Sunday last year. I don't know how this will be handled this year. I suggest that the people who are flying in for this need to talk to each other and come up with a plan. This plan can then be communicated to us and we (someone, not sure who yet) will help you out.
I'll volunteer again to make 1 trip to the airport on Thursday, but I will be back home (about 1 hour away) on Sunday.
