PointBuzz Off-Season Event - April 2

If it makes you feel any better, I only knew the term because I have a good friend who is a classical music buff. :)

In all honesty, I had to do a double take just to make sure my mind wasn't reading a foreign language. Talk about brain fart. :)

Yeah, I tend to get that way when I post right in the midst of my (other, professional) writing. Sorry.

haha I wish I only lived 320 miles away, I'd be all over this if I did!

Speaking of lurkers (and a sometimes poster)!!!!

I registered for this sure to be awesome event and will be bring the wife. Looks we'll drop the kid off at grandpa's and take advantage of the Castaway Bay rate for one night.

Is anyone else planning on taking advantage of the discounted rate?

Hey Walt, will we be meeting in the front parking lot or are we going all the way around to the back by Breakers to park?

You should have received an email saying what to do and where to go.

Yeah, didn't you get the memo? ;)

Guess I should check my email more than every week or two! ;)

A question about the event--

Do we know if Cedar Point will be requesting any kind of embargo on photos from the event? I still have a ton of video from an off-season tour where we were encouraged to shoot as much as we could, but not to post anything, but the world was a little different back then...

Might make a minor difference in how I approach the event...quite frankly I'm looking for a new feature for my video page... 8-)

I think they know us enough to trust us. ;)

Though I'm sure we'll find out before the tour starts.

I don't believe there will be any restrictions on posting, but we'll confirm that Saturday.

Hopefully they allow posting of some videos and pictures. Would love to at least have an idea of what I missed!

Adam: They do tend to trust us at least a little, to the extent that they have been known to say, "Don't put this on the Internet just yet". If there were no trust, they'd say "Leave your camera at home." 8-)

I don't expect there to be any restrictions, particularly given the shots that came out from the GOCC party, but it is always a good idea to be sure.

4 days to go ! Forecast shows few snow showers, high of 42, 30% chance of precipitation,dress warm !

Anybody at the event that's older than me,I'm 64.

26 times to the point in 2010, 99 TTD rides.

I signed up a few weeks ago, and was told by a friend that I would recieve an e-mail informing me of where to go and what time to meet at. I never got anything in my e-mail confirming the event. Should i be worried? I am on the list arent I? My Credit card was billed for it.

You're on the list. I'll resend the email.

I also received verification on the photo rules:

“Participants in the Pointbuzz.com winter tour are encouraged to bring their video and digital cameras to the event. All images can be posted online, with the exception of Dave Althoff. There’s something about a guy with that bushy of a beard that I don’t trust.”

LOL...That guy is shifty. :)

+1 for Walt. That literally made me laugh out loud.
