RSVP
The purpose of this survey is to learn how many people are at least interested in attending the 100th anniversary Tom Swift Convention. This will help us to commit to a certain number of room nights in the convention hotel, the Sheraton in the Mission Valley area of San Diego. The quoted room rate is $129 plus the usual taxes. This includes free WiFi and parking--two items which can be important and expensive if they are separate charges.
You do not need to make a payment or a firm commitment at this point. However, we would like to to gather a mailing list of people who would like to go, who will be staying at the convention hotel, who would like to make a presentation, etc.
Remember that if you are planning to stay longer for Comic-Con which begins with a preview night the Wednesday after TS100, you will be responsible for tickets to that event (which sell out a few months before the event) and lodging (which is often more expensive because of the demand for rooms during the event).
For purposes of initial planning, we are trying to attract about 100 people to this event. We can accommodate more people but if we have too few, the costs become burdensome. At this point we need to get a sense of how many would like to attend.
