September 25th - 29th 2006...

Anyone going? I'm planning on it....I'm reserving my plane tickets shortly and when I get my tax check, I'll be reserving my room.

Hmmm. maybe I can get my department to pay for it...do they have any classes there...if there are I can request educational leave and expenses...hmmm..
 
I would hope they would...There's something on that page to request more information.

As soon as my tax check comes in, I'm making all the reservations and stuff.

I'm just really anxious.
 
OOhh good excuse to finally go to Las Vegas!!!B)
 
It is supposed to be a good confrence... but EMS Expo 2005 had a little issue with folks leaving, or not leaving.... And some folks got to practice their MCI skills in a big way.

I went to JEMS 2005 in Philly, and will be going in '06 to Baltimore. The Squad will be paying.

Our new director is BIG on education...so if I can make it an educational trip then I wouldnt have to pay a penny...which is good...going to Vegas is just extra boot!
 
I'd like to go to JEMS, but I would have to have the squad pay. I'm poor.

I've been looking into the Vegas September expo (there is another one in November)...

If you can get multiple people going, out of pocket prices really aren't much...

So far I'm looking for 4-6 people for my group/room. For 5 nights (Monday to Saturday morning checkout) for a quad room at the Courtyard of Marriott (that's the name of the hotel), is $680....break it down, 4ppl will be $170each; 6ppl $115 each FOR THE WEEK. Plane ticket, well everyone is on their own for that. Mine will be about $325 round trip.

The way I'm understanding it, for the write off, you have to be staying at one of the expo contracted hotels...
 
Interesting...I certainly am going ot look into this...I sure do want to take some classes here and there, and maybe in another year or so I'll take my CCEMT-P class.
 
As far as food....I have a few friends that vacationed out there and recommends filling up at the buffets in the afternoon....so you don't eat breakfast and dinner...

Need the money for alcohol :) :)
 
Drinking is bad for me...makes me forget what I am doing and why I am somewhere...plus it really makes the girlfriend mad when I drink without her...
 
the SO doesn't like it when I drink either, but I get drunk enough that I don't remember his complaining.

Nunc est bibendum, m'dear!

Now is the time to drink!
 
The SO??? Are you married to the SO?? I avoid the SO when possible, they are dangerous...they might shoot their feet off...
 
SO - sig. other. I'll leave it at that.
 
I understand...and I think my liver would appreciate me not drinking too...when I drink it hurts...:rolleyes:
 
If you drink enough, it won't hurt anymore.
 
True, but I hear transplants are expensive...plus I just like to drink at home now...so much safe with the legal limit being .04 for me.
 
Ouch! .04? Dang!

I worked a guy the other night with a .266 BAL. Wonder why his nose had been bleeding for 3 days and he was lightheaded....

I have three rules about drinking
- Always have a DD
- Never drink alone
- Never drink at home

I can do some serious damage to myself drinking at home alone.
 
It's Sin City. Gotta have SOME fun. Really.
 
Amen, Sister!

Let your hair down it's VEGAS!!! :)
