Re: [UUPoly-L] GA07

I'm working on my schedule for attending GA07 and was wondering if there are 
any poly events b4 or after the GA that would warrent my getting to Portland 
a day early and/or staying a day after? I missed a poly meeting b4 GA06 due 
to pre-arranged travel plans and want to avoid a similar situation next go 
around if possible.
