Skepticon
I'm fairly new around here, but I figured I'd post the offer anyways.
I'll be traveling down to Skepticon and have room to bring 5 other people + bags with me.
Will be departing from Bentonville, but wouldn't mind swinging down through Springdale/Fayetteville to pick up people who wouldn't be able to make it there otherwise.
Just let me know

It looks to be a good program for 3 days. Some of the guest speakers are Dan Barker, Dr. Richard Carrier, PZ Meyers and "The Amazing Randi" James Randi. Maybe on Friday we could try to have a Fayettville Freethinker's get together? Sherry and I will be out of town on Saturday and Sunday for family stuff but we hope to be there on Friday.
Darrel-Feel free to put this in the after meeting summary when you send that out.
Thanks,

You and James posted the related info in different threads, so I just combined them into the same thread. I put yours into his because his topic had more info. No worries.Hydro wrote:Thanks for the subject edit, guess I should have included the extra info

Hey! I've been registered since July after attending the SSA Conference, but sort of gave up on going due to a lack of transportation or funds. However, recently I've had a friend offer to let me stay with him while there, so if I could get a ride it would be absolutely fantastic. Sort of last notice, I know. Sorry! If there is someone who can still offer me a ride, could you shoot me a message ASAP? Thanks!
Edit: I forgot to mention that I'm in Bentonville also.

Darrel should be posting a general message as well as sending out an e-mail request about rides to Skepticon any day/minute now.

When are you returning? I 'd be interested in carpooling, but need to return Saturday evening; I'm going up Friday and staying the night. So....? Does anyone want to go with me Friday and come back Sat.? You can call me at: (479) 643-2525. I don't check my e-mail very often, esp. because I am on dial-up and a laptop. But I'll look for a reply to this on Wednesday. Thanks. Barbara McClelland

It's unfortunate, but I've had some recent medical issues (has kept me from the general meetings) and I am having a cardiac electrophysiology study done in Kansas City Friday and will not be able to attend Skepticon as I had planned.
I'm very sorry, I hadn't thought of posting here as a follow up because as of a few weeks ago there didn't seem to be much interest.
my apologies to anyone who may have been thinking of planning on me

Our family function was changed. It was last weekend, not this upcoming one - and happily our work schedules cooperated, so James and I plan to be at most of the events.
We donated "freaked-out flyer miles" and are bringing guest speaker David Fitzgerald to Skepticon. Doing these things in the name of critical thinkers everywhere is a nice little side benefit of my husband's job! Last year, we got another speaker here the same way.
We hope to see all you Fayetteville Freethinkers who are making the trip. Drive carefully!

I have 5 open seats in my Mini Van and I'll be heading that way shortly after 5pm Friday the 19th. If interested in throwing in on gas, see my craigslist post here-

Put freethinker in the subject line of the reply email and I'll give you priority because you found it here.
