Crap. This is the same weekend as the minicamp Roger and (possibly) I will be attending. :-(

Did not think to check for that. Crap indeed. I think at least one person has bought plane tickets already. But if several people would like to attend but can't due to minicamp, would be able to attend the following week, and say so within the next 24 hours, I may move it to the 30th (first talking it over with said person who bought plane tickets already)

Well, my minicamp application is still up in the air... but if I do get in, I'm on record as a person who would not attend due to minicamp, and would if it were the 30th. (If I don't get in, I'm in either way.)

This is frustrating, but I think I'm going to have to go with the original date. I will miss Roger and (potentially) you, but there's almost certainly going to be people who can't make one date or the other and I think it's better to stick with the original plan.
