The web site says parking is complimentary for hotel guests, but I'm staying off site and just wondering how easy parking is. I called the hotel. They only charge non-hotel guests for overnight parking. I've been there - the parking lot is very large. Top

If you were there to see the festival it's fine, and there is plenty of parking. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

Posted on Jul 30 2024 12:32 AM To me, it's REALLY sad, that Facebook has exploded with SG101 posts, and yet the forum which did so much to get the festival to where it now, and for which it is named, is barely an after thought. I wonder how many of people the who attended, this year, have even been to the SG101 forum website. — Bob Top

I had to live vicariously through the FB posts as I could not attend this year. But it has been this way slowly over time. I just kind of think people prefer the big social media sites now and forums like this one have been passed over. Perhaps the subject of another thread, but maybe it's time to pack it in here. I wonder how many of people the who attended, this year, have even been to the SG101 forum website. I'm glad the festival has taken on a life of its own and expanded beyond our group here. Jeff's done a great job of sticking with it and growing it every year. — Site dude - S3 Agent #202 Need help with the site?

homerhead Joined: Mar 17, 2006 Posts: 530 Portland, OR	Posted on Jul 30 2024 09:44 AM Well Bob and Brian, I have to agree with you both. I was hoping to see some review/recap from attendees, but, as BTD sez, crickets. I'm a non-FB (or any other social media) kinda guy, but that probably just reflects my age. I love this music and this community and wish it was still well represented here. Sigh. Hopefully I'll be able to reconnect at an SG101 Festival in the not too distant future. Thank you Brian for your YEARS of effort and love for the community. And to you Bob for remaining vocal here.
