Kara and Corin are probably right, more people are probably more interested in WHEN the conference will be rather than in which city.

I haven't voted yet - still trying to decide which city but we are keen for the last dates (July).
Not sure if you need another vote based on the fact that the majority are saying that last choice of dates and also the majority are saying SA. Could change in the next couple of days though??? Corin is right with what she is saying but I am not sure it will matter with the way the votes have gone anyway???
I will vote tomorrow - we will have decide on which city to vote for tonight!
Danielle- mum of Alyssa 21-22/05/92 L-CDH diagnosed at birth
I think most are just googling the cities to see what's there.
Penny, I think Tara is in the Holy Land right now on a personal trip so she's not on-line but will be back soon.Everyone say prayers for her safety please!
It would be great to take all 3 of our boys together, Penny.... I know Braden and Garret would adopt Cole as their little brother in a heartbeat he's so darn cute!
Question....
Who absolutely cannot go in June? Who cannot go in July? Can any of you juggle your schedules? I hate to see anyone miss out!

My situation is too confusing to explain sanely.

I know that I can NOT go in June. That weekend is our annual adult only canoe trip which I set up. I can not change the date as the reservations are already made, date set and with 26-40 people it is hard to get a date! LOL
As for WHERE it is ......I did vote SA for a few reasons....the first being that the flights I have been looking at are 1/2 the price to SA than CC for me (SA $237 CC $484)........There seems to be more to do in SA....and also Shane will be in basic training and is SUPPOSE to be in SA at that time which would work great if the conference is at the end of July as his b-day is the 26th.
ME TOO BARB! $158 to San Antonio and over $400 to Corpus Christi. I don't care about the dates but it would certainly would be more economical for us to go to San Antonio.

That is an AWESOME price Karla!! yes we have to do this cheaply! LOL Just think....we will still have to add in the hotel! yikes! LOL
I know...if I knew the dates I would have bought the tickets! It was probably at a ridiculously early time!

OK I just checked out the prices for the different airports: It is twice as much to fly into Corpus Christi than San Antonio! It would be $235 for San Antonio and $475 for Corpus Christi!!!! Thats crazy!!! I am definitely voting for San Antonio!!!!
