TI-99 Spring festival 2024 in Central Texas

Had some interest so the Central Texas TI-99 Spring Festival for 2024 is on. Below are pictures of the House we can use. It has large central room and 2 smaller rooms plus a full kitchen. Monday - Thursday we use it to teach underprivileged kids math, reading and the arts. Friday through Sunday it's not used so we can have it for those days. parking is good on Saturday and Sunday but a little tight on Friday. 

We can use it most weekends May through July.

House is located right off the highway in East San Antonio not far from downtown so lots hotel rooms in the area. The house is 24 hour monitored and even has a guy lives right off the house so anything left over the weekend would be secure. Oh, it even has a large screen display in the main room.

PLEASE POST THE DAYS and HOURS BEST FOR YOU AND WE'LL AGREE ON WHAT DAY BEST FOR ALL (OR MOST).

HLO

Are you planning on just one day? I would think two or three days would be better. One of the problems with the Chicago Faire is that it is limited to a single day from 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM.

 

I have been retired for a long time and would also visit family in Houston, so dates and times are of little concern to me. Count me in for whenever.

That looks perfect.    (BTW the classroom we used at Hackerspace in 2019--that's been converted to Laser room, it's gone.)  

 

So late Friday we can park and begin setting up the room?  Clean up finally on Sunday afternoon.  

 

Is there a room separate from the classroom?   For those who want to sit out during a presentation.   And to greet the arriving folks.  Name tags, raffle tickets, T-shirts, etc.  (It's going to be fun.)  The giveaway pile!

 

I can promise, the raffle will include the cartridge DRAGON's LAIR.  Also, TI BASIC will be choosing the winners again.  RND()!

two separate rooms which we current use for art and computer play. both have tables (pictures 3 and 4). 

in the front is a attached room that we use for pre-K (back of picture lit area in picture 1). some chairs could be set up in there. we do have more tables and chairs in another building we own down the street we could use if need be.
