[registrars] [Fwd: [council] Wellington good news]
I'm happy to be the bearer of this good news. I've heard that after happy hour is over that Bhavin would be totally cool with us heading back to his room for a daily mini-bar raid. :) -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [council] Wellington good news Date: Fri, 17 Mar 2006 00:05:50 +0100 From: GNSO.SECRETARIAT@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <gnso.secretariat@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: council@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: ICANN Wellington From: "Keith Davidson" <exe.dir@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2006 17:35:51 -0800 All, Pardon this intrusion, but I thought it might be useful to advise you all my plans regarding some social aspects of the Wellington ICANN meeting... As you are all aware, ICANN attendees are scattered around 7 hotels in Wellington. I have been concerned that the ICANN attendees will therefore tend to drift to their various hotels, and therefore we run the risk of missing out on much of the usual social interaction. I have therefore organised a bar, around 100 metres away from the conference venue, which will be renamed the ICANN bar for the week. I have a number of sponsors aligned to provide a "happy hour" at the ICANN bar from around 5pm to 7pm each night from Sunday 26th. There will be free beer and wine for the duration of the "happy hour". We will run a theme each night, for each of the sponsors and there will be some little prizes for attendees etc etc. Pre-printed invitations to the Happy Hours will be included in the delegates packs at registration, and we'll get details on the website soon also. The location of the ICANN Bar is also shown on the map given to delegates. InternetNZ people will be hovering around the exit doors of the Convention Centre from around 5pm each evening and offering to escort people to the ICANN bar. I am hopeful that you all might assist me by encouraging as much of the ICANN crowd together each night at the ICANN Bar, and therefore ensuring the geographical spread of hotels does not lead to a lack of opportunity for all to mix and mingle?
