I'm arriving on Wed Aug 6 around 1:00 ish pm - YYZ - anyone else coming in then? I'd like to share a cab if I can.:balloon:
 
Sorry, I am driving myself as I live about 2 hours away...

But, a suggestions. Before conference, my exec director send out contact info of people who are looking for things from others such as:

Sarah S is looking for a roomate for Friday night only, if you have a space in your room or an extra body in your group, contact Sarah @ XXX XXX XXXX

Could you email your exec to find out if there is anyone in your cluster in the same position?

I'm looking for someone who will be going from downtown around 10 on Thursday. I've booked a car but it's $60! I'm not flying in - I'll be in on the train so I'm not sure if that would work for anyone...

Boy, it's tough to get someone to share a cab, hey? Too bad they didn't have a shuttle service! I'm coming in on Friday around 9:00 am, if anyone is coming in around then, I would love to share a cab.

See you all this weekend! I can't wait!! 4 more sleeps! :D
