So who is going to New York? :)

[Elder1945 Verified Sponsor]

I am looking right now at hotels.... I think I might be going to this one ..

Going. Probably Sunday. Planning on bringing the kids and giving the wife a free day. Curious, are there usually a lot of kids at these events? Would those experienced say bring them or better to leave them home (8 and 10yo)?

I'll be there distributing $1000s of dollars in raffle items!

 

[coral-boss]

I'm definitely going again

I will be there ! I live on Long Island so it’s only an hour away for me !

Honestly I think New York RAP has the least kids of any RAP. Mainly due to the fact that most arrive using mass transit. Good news is that kids 10 and under are free! I brought my wife and kids (10 & 13) to Orlando but we were staying in the hotel so if they didn't want to go to the show they could do whatever.

Seem like it would be a fine place for kids.. I do not see any issue I would have bringing my daughter.

I plan to be there. Not sure if I’ll bring my family or not. Would just go for a day.

I am leaving my family but it is a 7hr drive for me so going to stay 2 days i think.

They are really getting into this setup. Especially the older one. I would feel guilty not bringing her. She is already naming corals and fish at the LFS when we go scouting.

Always!!

Just 2 hours for me I was just told that weekend is also the ice cream festival. That might mean I go alone. But no ice cream

That would be awesome.
I could help either finding a venue / place or LFS. Tour sorta thingy.

LIA is as always great also.
