Excellent, Michael: welcome!
I have some "pre-flight instructions" to make your stay more pleasant.
-The rooms are comfortable and clean, and almost all of them have kitchens. Snacks, drinks and food you like may come in handy. However we are not meeting on the surface of Mars: there are supermarkets in Wildwood!
-The convention space is unheated. Bring clothing as if you are going out a few days on a boat: be prepared for anything! (OK,...no life vest!) We've done shorts and t-shirts, we've done winter coats and gloves too!
-If you have a Super-8 or 16mm film 20 minutes or less you would like to share with the Saturday night show, please feel free to bring it along. Please don't mind if there are a lot and you don't make it on screen! (It's not a contest!)
-We go out to eat several times. You can join in if you'd like, but you don't have to (either or always). They are about the only chance you will ever get to debate Eiki vs. Elmo, or Castle vs. Blackhawk publicly!
-the hotel has WiFi, and this Forum often reports live during proceedings.
-the south end of the Wildwood Boardwalk is about two blocks away and the beach is right across the street from the hotel. Everything from the sublime to the downright tacky is right there for your enjoyment!
This is very informal and unstructured. Once you find your room, follow the sounds of the projectors downstairs and introduce yourself!
-------------------- All I ask is a wide screen and a projector to light her by...

Or you can hear me shouting along the way, "Blackhawk Lives!" - Well, not as loud as the T-Shirt I wear bearing its logo - Suggest also, as I do, check the weather about ten days before (long-range), as April is apt to be either warm or cool depending - Our usual sojourn is to The Crusader (walking distance) and/or (partial to) Uncle Bill and other nice places in and about town - Our dinners are splendid outtings, as of late Rio or Boathouse - We have alot of fun, carry on and under about the latest (and past) - By all means, bring films and be ready to debate why film over digital or vice-versa - Claus, our intrepid photographer par excellence, will document our maneuverings and forever 'frame us' for memories to come - And, if you have any 8mm...well, I certainly wouldn't mind - Shorty
