Back to the IOLI convention thread for a moment - I just came up with an idea...
The middle day is an equalizer to some extent, but not all "vigorous" people
will want to go on a tour - it costs a lot!
How about having a separate one-day class on Wednesday, in addition to the
trips? This way some people can have a free day to relax or go on trips, and
some people can take more classes. Also, maybe this way some people could just
show up for this one-day class and some shopping, instead of the whole
convention, especially if they can't afford or don't have time for the whole
week? And I guess this would let the people who are teaching a 24-hour class
actually take a class as well, if they wanted too...
Does this sound like a reasonable idea? Just for future reference...
Also, yes, by all means let's have a lace boot camp!!
Wake-up call 6am, make 10 tallies as exercise before breakfast, ... <G>
Seriously, I do think that would be a good idea - an official separate "track"
for people who want intensive classes and don't care about living conditions.
