That's cool... hopefully they improved the decor a little too, and did away with that moth-ball aroma

Yeah....I hear you on the rustic charm stuff! LOL! Read Paul's neat report:

Sounds like they are well into renovations!

Well, the original owner passed away and Fontana Village was in probate for a long time. New owners, new ideas, freshening up is on the way!

Event registration badge
2006 MINIs on the Dragon screen printed tote bag
2006 MINIs on the Dragon T-shirt
2006 MINIs on the Dragon window cling
Lanyard with custom badge containing your name and online handle
2006 MINIs on the Dragon water bottle
Other items too mentionable to be numerous!

The DCMM team will have sorted lists that should show all the stuff you registed for and appropriate tickets will be handed out starting Thursday (some of us are arriving Wed PM to get stuff set up). The lists are all on the computer with the information having been transferred from Mark Ferguson (Mr. NAM, who fronted the store) to the the DCMM folks (in addition to the paper lists, we will have it available on a laptop at registration too). I'm not exactly clear just where the MOTD event checkin will be, but the Fontana people will be glad to direct you from their checkin; Click here and slide down to the 4th map on the MOTD map web page. (Any of the DCMM people who know the specific location, please feel free to chime in!)

Of course there can always be problems (especially when kumpoutrs are involved), so it never hurts to bring the confirmations.

See you there -- Tom (DCMM V.P.)

Thanks very much, Tom! Sorry for the late reply; I've barely been on the computer for the past couple of days... See you there!
