ICOT 15 Planning

[brownie]

Depending on when it is, we'll try to meet everyone at Petals Pool Bar.

When would we fit this fun POP/Art poolside drinks time? It looks like before the official events start may be a good time, but not everyone will be around Wednesday and Thursday nights. Thoughts? How many people will still be there Sunday evening?

I'm there from Wednesday to Monday. I first said Tuesday to Monday, but I don't know what I was thinking. Wishing I had more time, I guess. I can't wait!

I know that my roomie will be leaving during the day on Sunday, so I would rather not wait that long.

Maybe we could join up Thursday evening after some of us get back from 'Ohana. I know that I'm probably not going to make it to Universal unless a limo suddenly arrives to pick me up! We could meet at Petals Thursday around 9:30pm. The other alternative is to try to gather after we get back from Epcot Saturday night. Comments?

Thursday or Saturday works. We're headed to Epcot on Thursday and are planning on watching Illuminations, so we'd probably be able to be there by 10pm on Thursday.

Thursday does not work for me. That's the night we are doing the MNSSHP. But Saturday works. Go from Jellyrolls, drop off the husband and the kids at AoA then mosey on over to Petals would work.

But that would require an early exit from Jellyrolls. If we're just getting there after 9, I imagine most of us would be staying there until past closing at Petals? I don't know. It's hard to plan some things in advance, I guess. Maybe just impromptu meetings at Petals depending on who is over there at any given time? Phone number exchange to help with impromptu meetups perhaps?

[BriarRose0708]

This is very tough since there's so much going on during a very short window of time! Maybe we could make them more of a Tweet-up and Text-up thing. Exchange phone numbers like Sherri suggested, send a text message to all and put it out on Twitter with our iCOT15 hashtag. Whenever someone is at the pool bar hanging out for a bit, send the message out and anyone who's in the vicinity and wants to come can make their way over.

I know for myself, I will be at Petals Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday nights

I like this idea. #intercot "JMTStone is at the pool bar at AoA. Look for the lady with the and an injured Yeti t-shirt"

Hahtag on Twitter for the event is #ICOT15

[Jared]

As a general rule, I'll be up for anything at just about any time. So just keep me in the loop. If anyone needs my cell phone number, feel free to reach out or ask Nikki (or a bunch of other people who already have it).

Hello my name is Nikki, and I am Jared's personal communications coordinator. Please forward all messages and requests through me

Also, if anyone would like to follow me on Twitter my handle is @dancernl I will likely be tweeting profusely through the weekend!

[JMTStone]

I follow @INTERCOT and now @jmtmstone is following @dancernl.

So, a sample tweet would be "JMTStone (Melissa) is at Jellyrolls with the whole @INTERCOT crew at #ICOT15 wearing her broken Yeti shirt"

[John]

You could also checkin on FourSquare too and mention ICOT15 in the comments

You should be so lucky.

[Dsnygirl]

I'm in for the tweeting - I'm @dsnygirl, and have just started following those of you who I'm just getting tweeter names from today!

Bear in mind, tho, I am dismal at tweeting the way it's supposed to be done... barely understand the whole "hashtag" thing and could really use a private lesson before we get down there...

PM me if you'd like my cell - might be easier, in my world...

I am up for anything, although will be attending the evening events, so unsure I will make it to Petals, esp as I'm staying DVC w/ a friend and have NO idea how to manage getting around between resorts and DVC places. But I can still try!!

[Katzateer]

I don't tweet or really get on any other sites except Facebook so.....if a day or time is. Decided if it is posted in this discussion I will check it while we are at WDW and try to meet.
the best night for us would be Wednesday or maybe Thursday.

anyone wants to meet for breakfast at AOA or just to visit by the pool .........if anyone that is going to be around wants to exchange cell phone # let me know

[Dopey's Girl]

I love all the technology options. Makes impromptu meets so much easier!

I'm @MnMegK on twitter and am off to follow all of you. I'm sure I'll be tweeting most of the weekend too!

[SBETigg]

If you're not following me yet, I'm @sherrierwin on Twitter.

You're right.... I did underestimate the timing. I don't think DH and DD will want to stay at Jellyrolls too long.... Perhaps the chance of enjoying a at Petals while my DH and DD were back at AoA got me a bit too excited. I love them but they don't get the "meet" as much as I do.
