SO confusion

Hi everyone. :o)

A couple of weeks ago, I started to register for DLV but after a few
questions, it seemed to be directed more to the 'girls' and not
specifically for SO's. So I let my sweetie register and list me as her
SO. Now, however, I'm wondering how I will sign up for the SO
get-together and if I will continue to get updates in my e-mail since I
am not personally registered.

Sorry to be so dense about this, but just wondered about the procedure.

We're both looking forward to seeing everyone again and can't wait to
make new friends this year.

Thanx,

Sandi

First of all, let me asure you that even though our registration and
activity sign-up is automated, there are real humans behind the process,
so if you ever have any concerns, let us know. There's nothing in the
process that's hard and fast.

If you need something that appears to be out of procedure, please let us
know.

That's the way it's usually done, a couple will usually register
together. The language of the screens is written from the perspective of
a TG, with an optional SO, but I know of (at least) one case where the
SO is the primary registrant with the TG listed as the SO. It can work
either way.

We've also had cases where a couple will register individually, and
also where a SO has attended without a TG partner being present. It
will work all ways.

Since your partner's e-mail address is on the registration, one activity
sign-up mailing will be sent to your partner's address for both of you
tomorrow. It will ask for how many (zero, one, two) will attend most of
the activities, and how many (zero or one) will attend the SO's
get-together. It is written from the perspective of a TG with a SO
partner. Just be sure the box is checked and you will be on the list.

I just checked and both of your addresses are on the mailing list. Both
of you will receive everything except the large final mailing, which
will go to the address on the registration unless you tell us otherwise.
If you want a second copy of the final mailing to go to you as well, let
us know.

No problem at all. If ever you become confused about what's going on,
just ask.

And we're looking forward to having both of you with us again.
