We have a contingent of 5 that I know of that are going early (noon departure) to bowl the eliminator or try anyway, plus 4 that are going on their own. That leaves 13 if all of our available spots are utilized.
I need at least one more person to go early (preferrably not someone who has to skip a bunch of class to do so). I would like the 2nd wave to leave as soon after 2pm as possible.
Those going early may need to pack their bowling equipment and what they need for the eliminator in the packer van they travel in, as the cargo van will probably NOT go early, but will lag behind to take everyone's luggage and bowling equipment.
Jillian has offered to drive and can leave early, so this may be the packer van that takes those going to the eliminator. Randy can leave early as well.
I plan to take the cargo van or packer van to Indy at 2pm, which should give me time to get us checked into the hotel and take everyone back to the bowling center to watch the eliminator (if interested).
So...who can go early (without missing class) and who can go later (at 2pm or as soon after as possible)???
We can discuss Thursday night at practice if everyone will be there...
Might have too many going early now...The cargo is probably going to have to leave in the 2nd wave to make sure we have bowling equipment and luggage from everyone in it. My thought was to take those bowling the eliminator and their bowling equipment early, with all other equipment and luggage going late in the cargo once everyone can get there after class...
Jillian is driving a packer van leaving at noon with the following people:
Jenny, Stephanie, Amanda Greene, Danny Spink and Jordan Roche.
Everyone else is going at 2pm.
The reason for this is that those bowling the eliminator are packing their bowling stuff and change of clothes with them in the van, so we need the extra room for equipment.
This way, the cargo van can wait for everyone else to load their luggage and bowling equipment for the 2pm departure. If we leave on time, we should still be able to get to Indy, check in to the hotel and get to the bowling center to watch the eliminator (for those interested).
