Wanted to clarify a couple things for everyone interested in the Brotherhood of the Dragon meet this year.
Cut-off for guaranteed availability of lodging at Fontana Village is 7-28-05 per our agreement with Fontana. After the 7-28 date, the space will be available to the public at large. It may still be available for late folks, but then again it may not.
Cut-off date to have a guarenteed spot at the Banquet is 8-31-05.
With all of that said, I wanted to be sure everyone knew all of the options. If you are still on the fence deciding whether to make it or not, we will accept registration up to 5 days before the event, but I wanted everyone to understand that waiting until the last minute did have some downfalls.
Please feel free to shoot me an email if there are any questions concerns, or special requests.

So...with the two imminent recalls about to come for our beloved 8's I'm wondering if we should turn this event into a who has the best loaner car contest. Just sitting here thinking how that 02 Chevy Malibu I always get stuck with will tear up the Dragon.

I'm thinking that we should get one of the local Mazda dealers to set up at the event and perform the recalls at the site. Kinda kill 2 birds with one stone.....

Alrighty, well the last day of the guarenteed group discount (for Fontana Village) was yesterday. I hope everyone was able to get their registration in.
Remember you can still register, we just can not guarentee that there will be space at the village. But also remember there are a lot of people looking for others to stay with so please post if you need a roommate, etc.
GETTING REALLY CLOSE!!!!!!

New Updates
We are only 27 days out!!!!!!!! 
:D
SO HERE ARE THE NEWEST UPDATES:
I have made some MAJOR updates to the website. Please take a look at the Itinerary Section of the website for the plans of the weekend. There is a lot of information there as well as ideas and things for people looking for additional activities.
Another MAJOR update is the Sponsors area. Please visit all of our Sponsors as they have been so kind to donate a lot of the Raffle Prizes
As you can see above I have also posted a Raffle Prizes list. This list is growing everyday so check back often.
One of the major events of the weekend besides the DRAGON is the SHOW AND SHINE CAR SHOW. Take a look at the ITINERARY for a list of the categories and prizes. The show will consist of 6 categories. All registered and paid attendees will recieve a voting ballot and will vote on all of the RX-8's that wish to participate. Participation is free with your paid registration. The show will be held on Friday and we will be cooking burgers and socializing. Prizes will be given out during the banquet on Saturday.
I would like to get a tally of where everyone is staying. If you could please email me with your type of cabin and if you need roommates or if you already have some people staying with you let me know that too.
Please PM me or E-Mail if you have any questions or comments.

**TIME FOR A REMINDER**
As of August 31, 2005 I have to give Fonatana a FINAL number for the banquet. This number will be based on the number of PAID registrations. If you have not paid by August 31, 2005 I can not guarentee you food at the banquet or a T-Shirt, I will try to get you a goody bag, time permitting. As of right now we have 37 Attendees (including guests) of which 11 have not paid for registration. Remember as always registration is not required but paying the registration fee gets you:
Discount for lodging at Fontana Village
Goody Bag (including free give aways)
T-Shirt
Raffle Ticket (Check out the sponsors and prizes at mazdanow.com)
Banquet Ticket
Registration into the Car show for prizes
I will be sending out an email to everyone who has not paid yet on August 25, 2005. Please feel free to PM me or E-mail me if there are any problems or questions.
Thanks guys.

Don't think for a second that just because I have the REVi already I'm going to make the odds better for everybody. In fact after I WIN that prize I imagine I'll have the only dual REVi equipped 8!! :D I might be willing to make a deal...

Check out the rest of the prize list HERE
If you're procrastinating because you can't make it for the whole 4 days, then come for whatever time your schedule allows. And, if you can't be there on Sat. night for the banquet, then contact us about deducting the banquet cost from the registration (not an option if you're there on Sat. night).
Hope to see you there.........zoom-zoom, beep

Anyone up for rafting on saturday? I'm not getting in until friday night and my guest wants to go! 
Is the $40 the regular price or is it a special price. If its a special price, can we still get it for saturday :D .
edit: this will not interfere with my dragon drives
