| The festival is free. Many items are alacarte. There will be free performances throughout the festival. Merchandise vendors and food service vendors throughout. If one opts for everything the dollar amount gets up there, but it comes with a lot of perks. I know many who attended the Cerritos festival last year that thoroughly enjoyedThe free activities. I'm opting for the full package. Hope to see you there, Dusty. Fred's lining up performers for other than the luau concert and VIP. Ric |

Just in from Janet:
Tune up my ukulele!....."I'm so excited...I just can't hide it!".....
I'm sending this eMessage from my personal email where I can mass-email...so you can all get this as soon as possible! As I know we've all been waiting with baited breath! I think I lost at least one brain cell too.
Aloha! Pound those drums and tell everyone!
You can start here at this direct link under the BUY TICKETS tab on the website.
http://www.sandiegoukefestival.moonfruit.com/login#/buytickets/4550528478
Note: Scan thru the part about "Companion" or "Child" ticket if you are buying a full Super VIP Package or regular VIP Package, without the Workshops, before you buy. It'll help you a lot. We still have a few small glitches to work out, I'm sure. If you find an oddity, please let us know.
There are a couple spots where they forgot a couple workshops - but we should have that fixed by Monday.
Also, for some reason Jake's a-la-carte concert won't let you buy a Table dinner seat right now - but we'll get that fixed. It's only a-la-carte. The VIP packages work for buying your table dinner seats. Do not fret - there are still plenty of seats.
But so far, the rest all looks good to purchase if you want to get your spot reserved. So go ahead and start buying! Below are some further hints to make it easier for ordering. Mahalo!

Update from Janet:
(please pardon my personal eAddy that let's me eBlast without spamming!)
Spam!? But we love Spam - it tastes so good!
Aloha apau ! ONLY TWO WEEKS AWAY! Can't wait!! SHARE THIS email with your club members! Shout it from the volcano tops!

Hurry and get your seats now - get your best seats while they are available! First-come-first-served! Time is running out! Only 2 weeks away! If you are getting a VIP package with sit-down Big Kahuna up-front table dining concert tickets...better hurry! As we may limit and cut the number of seats off ! And the food? OMG! It's fabulous! We have no plans for prices to go down or be discounted. Jake is not cheap for us to have him appear, but he's worth it! This event will be FIRST CLASS all the way! And wait until you see the great surprises planned before James Hill's closing show! You won't want to miss it! No other Festival will top it! Get tix! It's heeeere!

"please pardon my personal eAddy that let's me eBlast without spamming!"
ricdoug,does that sentence translate to English? I pretty much understand Spamming, but the two e words are 6' tall, and I'm only 5'6".
