Here, you can find information on this year's tee shirt designs, travel info, tips on where to stay (if you elect to stay overnight and do not want to sleep at the Gunter-Hammond home), a short list of proposed happenings and a general FAQ helping to explain the logistics of a multiday party.

| If you are planning on flying in, the tiny [[http://www.flyithaca.com/ Ithaca-Tompkins Regional Airport]] is closest, but is probably expensive. The next closest is the[[http://www.binghamtonairport.com/aviation/| Greater Binghamton Airport]] with [[http://www.syrairport.org/index.cfm| Syracuse Hancock International Airport]] after that. Please let the hosts know ASAP what your flight plans might be so we can discuss how to get you to/from the airport.

| == Accommodations ==
| |
| | |
| Guests of the Gunter/Hammond family are invited to sleep at their house. All overnight guests will be given complimentary earplugs in case they wish to try to sleep through revelry. Bed/futon space is very limited, however, so individuals are encouraged to bring sleeping bags for indoor camping.
| |
| | |
| If you are interested in booking a hotel/motel room or want to stay at a bed and breakfast, here are some resources:

| | |
| * A google map showing our house and nearby [[http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&geocode=&time=&date=&ttype=&q=category:+Motels+%26+Hotels&near=38+W+Main+St,+Dryden,+NY+13053&ie=UTF8&cd=1&ei=GXwTR_-DAo6siQGlhJC8BQ&ll=42.490478,-76.300582&spn=0.352908,0.577469&z=10&om=1| hotels and motels]].
| |
| * If a bed and breakfast is more your style, check out [[http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&geocode=&time=&date=&ttype=&q=bed+and+breakfast&near=38+W+Main+St,+Dryden,+NY+13053&ie=UTF8&ll=42.490478,-76.300582&spn=0.088227,0.144367&z=13&om=1 these]].
| |
| **[[http://www.candlelightinnny.com/ The Candlelight Inn Bed & Breakfast]], which is only a few yards from our house, comes very highly recommended, though revelers tend to fill it very quickly.

| ==FAQ==
| |
| *Q: The party is over several days? What does that mean?
| |
| *A: Think of it as more of a camping trip than a party. Things take place over several days because many people attending the party have not seen one another for months, sometimes years. The extended time period lets people have fun, talk with friends, etc. It also lets people that live closer more easily arrange their schedules so they can attend at least some of the time.
| |
| <p>
| |
| *Q: It sounds like <event> is going to be fun. When will it be?
| |
| *A: Unfortunately, most things that happen at the party are pretty fluid. An example was the firebreathing lessons that took place in 2007. Most people at the party didn't even know there were lessons taking place until after the police had a few comments for those taking part.
