Reduced-fee registration receipt deadline: Saturday 28th February

Hopefully everyone has mailed in their registrations, right?

It'll cost you a bit more if they show up in the Post Office box up in
Albany after Saturday.

Thanks for helping us out.

Finalize Fest hotel reservations soon

As you know, the Best Western sets aside a block of hotel rooms for us for the Fest. As the Fest approaches, the Best Western can take any unsold rooms that were set aside for the Fest and then allow other people or groups -- not associated with the Fest -- to reserve them.

So, if you're planning to join us and haven't made your hotel reservations yet, consider doing so in the next few days.

Call the hotel directly at +1 215 368 3800 to reserve your room. The hotel also has its own inbound toll-free number, 1 (800) 277-3615, that can save you the toll charge.

You can't use the website booking functionality because the special SWL Fest rate ($85) is not available there.

See you all in less than three (egad) weeks
