I am researching the dates for Keystone Conference in March 2017

I will contact the chairs immediately.

I'll get back to you

My guess is early March but it has been known to run towards St.
Patrick's day.

Michelle continues:

See email below. Joanne is the Keystone Co-Chair.

+ Keystone is contracted already for the next two years and the dates
+ are:
 
+ March 22-26, 2017 and March 7-11, 2018
. . . . .

Annie responds:

Thanks, Michelle.

Do you (or does anyone else) personally have a conflict if DLV runs the
same weeks as Keystone? If so, please let us know and we'll mark that
week as an active volunteer conflict.

For the time being, let's count this as a negative mention for the span
of weeks covering Keystone.

We've conflicted with Keystone in the past and had no complaints or
named conflicts. Our surveys show that only a small handful of DLVers
have ever attended Keystone.

If you (or anyone) think this is a major conflict, please say so within
the next list cycle.

If a date adjacent to Wildside is chosen, perhaps some of their
attendees will stay on and give Diva a try. While I personally prefer a
March date for DLV, perhaps gaining a few Wildside attendees is a
consideration.

Annie responds:

Let's mark this as a specific positive mention for the week beginning
May 21 and, of course, a positive mention of the span containing the two
March weeks.

Several times it's been mentioned that it would be a Good Thing if we
scheduled DLV to either run concurrently or sequentially with Wildside
to allow people to do both. It will, of course, be up to the gang here
to weigh the factors and decide if this is an option to be pursued.

I am good for the first 2 weeks that are available in March with no
conflicts.
. . . . .

Thanks, Cami. We'll mark this as a positive mention for the span
covering both March weeks.
. . . . . . . . . .

Here is the updated list with the current scores. One point for a
positive mention of a span including the week, two points for positive
mention of a specific week. Minus one point for a negative mention of a
span including the week and minus two for a negative mention of a
specific week. Minus 5 for a specific active volunteer conflict.

Week of Sun, Mar 19: (Three-day overlap with Keystone) +6
Week of Sun, Mar 26: (One-day overlap with Keystone) +4
Week of Sun, Apr 02: (One active volunteer conflict) -5
Week of Sun, Apr 30: (No significant conflicts) +1
Week of Sun, May 21: (No significant conflicts) +3

Hi: Question: There are some photos of me on the 2016 photo gallery,
that I would rather not have posted to the public, is there a way for me
to remove them?

Thank You
. . . . . . . . . .

Annie responds:

The best way is to view the photo on line and send in a cut-paste of the
exact URL (from your browser's location bar) of the photo in which you
appear which you do not like.

With Mozilla-based browsers (Firefox, Seamonkey, Iceweasel, etc.) and
some others, you can simply mouse over the thumbnail, right click, and
copy link location and then paste that in an email.

Everyone has a reasonable number of "NO WAY" removal requests for any
photos in which they appear.
