It’s not, really. The event has always had a hospitality suite where snacks and beverages including beer but also several non-alcohol options including water have been stocked. That’s why it came up. This is a different challenge this time. In the pre-covid era covering about 30 years, the

[Swlfest] Radio in Wartime

The writer calls Stair “conflicted”. From the tenor of this “eulogy” it sounds like Stair isn’t the only one conflicted. Calling this a “ministry” debases not only the word, but the whole concept. Sent from my iPhone > On Apr 5, 2021, at 9:25 AM, Richard Cuff wrote: > >  > Although

[Swlfest] Thank You All

Hi - For me, probably the most significant sign that this “virtual” Fest was not really all that virtual at all is that little tinge of sadness and melancholy I usually feel at the end of each year’s edition. It was there again as I hit the “leave” button on ZOOM at around 1:30 this morning.

$125 is the Fest rate. While I know of no $109 rate with breakfast included, there have been enough anomalies reported that I wouldn’t say categorically that it doesn’t exist somewhere in their system. Keep in mind that in order for the event to get a discounted rate for the meeting rooms it

Well it’s a great memory but in no way was it 11 days long! However, it was the first time it was extended from two days to three. One aspect would be true. Comparing beer consumption between that 20th Fest and the just completed 32nd, these days it would take 11 days for the attendees
