Hi fellow Great Northwesterners!

The Seattle Bash and Splash committee would like to formally invite you to the 2007 Seattle Bash and Splash!

Please visit our website to sign up for our email list and to register!

The Bash executive committee has been working diligently to make this

a grand event.

This is a totally volunteer based, non-profit event put on by Bandsters for Bandsters. The success of the event is because volunteers come forward to help and contribute their time. The bash could now use several people to come

forward to help coordinate or help for any event. Sign up to volunteer on the website.

Here are some things to remember:

This year the event will be held at the SeaTac Marriott Hotel which

is located across from Sea-Tac airport, February 16-18, 2007.

On the website you'll see the deadlines for early bird discount registration and late registration. The hotels room rate is $99/nite for double

occupancy. You will need to tell the hotel that you are with the Bandster

Bash and Conference- the code is BAN or you will be charged a much

higher rate. The number to call for reservations is 1-800-721-7033.

You will be given a hotel confirmation number when making the

reservation. You will need to include this with your conference

registration form or you will be charged an extra fee. Like most big conferences, conference facility charges are offset by an obligation to have so many hotel rooms booked. Bandsters who book hotel rooms offset these fees.

Conference attendants who do not book hotel rooms will be

charged an extra fee if they do not stay in the hotel. So that is why

we need your hotel registration number which will be cross checked

with the Marriott hotel. Please note there is a deadline again this

year for both early registration and also to get this discounted

room rate. After these dates are passed (see registration form) the

hotel will charge you their regular hotel room rates.

In the next few days Bash activity coordinators will be posting information on the website about their parts of the event. Feel free to volunteer and ask about any info you may want to know by posting to this site.

On behalf of the 2007-Fifth annual Seattle Bash and Splash Executive Committee we welcome you to this wonderful annual event and hope to see you soon.

Joanne Godmintz

Seattle Bash and Splash Event Coordinator
