The family and I plan on it.  I have already checked out plane tickets and got them real cheap!! 200 a person! Not a bad deal considering its from one corner to the other.  Myself, wife, 10y/o, 8 y/o and 6 y/o. 
One day I will fly out of the fog and all of this will be seen clearly!

I am going to be looking for some people to teach soon. I will be reaching out to people that are experts in certain areas to help pass their knowledge along. I am not wanting people to pm me asking to do so at this time that will be later. But I will reach out to find a high end Renard user that can put a class on about everything you every would need to know about Renard. I need someone that really knows the inside out about them. If you are a person like this please feel free to pm me. If multiple people ask to do so we will use the most experienced person to make sure the users interested in Renard get the best we can offer.

I am also hope one of the Xlights people that have been involded in it's design can do a class. I am already asking some other experts in other items to step up and be a part of putting on the DIY expo so that it will be the best place ever to learn about it all. I hope to have a few very special guest that everyone is going to really love to have the chance to meet and shake hands with!

This will be an all inclusive education so that no matter what DIY stuff you are interested in or what software you want to learn there will be more than something for you.

Well I can say that we have two of our softwares covered with training. With one the Owner is coming so we should really get schooled!

I have got a comfirmation from one of the individuals I have asked to teach so we are moving right along with getting the training setup. Looks as if it might be a really awesome event!  <wd..

So far everyone has said they think a big get together for DIY'ers was a great idea.

Just a suggestion, maybe have a little class on creating your own pic program and using it in DMX.

I think that would be something that require much long than an hour to cover much. It would be more of a half day or day topic.

It also would have a fixed audience that that would miss DLAs main focus. It's a good idea but I think it would need it's own venue to do it right.

I would say if the event was three days of classes we could do it by dedicating one classroom to it for half a day.

Just got an email from JetBlue that says on July 17 they will be extending their schedule to April 30, 2012 so that may be one more to check (if JetBlue services your area).

Looks like so far this is where we are going to be hosting the event. I am still looking but they are offering me very good rates for the quality of Hotel it is.

$89 is a great rate for this place it is normally around $160 a night. Has three very nice conference rooms for classrooms that they will give me a break on if we get enough people staying the night.

Orlando Intl is the closest and easiest to get to. Tampa works but is less conveinent.
