You better believe I will be! Taking the day off. I'll probably head on over to the HQ after to make some calls as well. Have you been to the HQ?

I'll be at the one on the CSU campus (Fort Collins), hoping it will be a great turnout!

Awesome. I'm taking off of work mid-morning or so and heading to Denver then (I work in Westminster). I can't make it to the HQ tomorrow, unfortunately. I did make it to the HQ on Saturday for caucus training (it was great) and also some phone calls. The only problem with phone banking from HQ is that their phone connections start to break up when they have a lot of people calling (I guess that's a good problem to have?) and the person you are calling can't hear you, which is really frustrating for everyone. I'm guessing that they need more bandwidth for the VOIP phones. They said that they will be working on that, hopefully before the volunteers really hit it hard this weekend. I will say that the phone system they have is really, really easy to use and you can quickly make a lot of calls - just press 1 button and the phone dials the next person for you. It really is fun once you start going.
Anyway, I'm looking forward to tomorrow!

When were you there on Saturday? I was there around noon to 2 or so making calls. I hear ya with the VOIP phones cutting out--verrrry frustrating, especially when you have a call with potential Ron Paul support.

Planning on going to the one at CSU. How early would you guys recommend showing up if I wasn't able to get a pre-reserved seat?

Ha, I was there just before noon for the caucus training, which went until about 2:30 or so. We (wife and myself) grabbed some lunch and then made calls for about an hour or so afterwards. Small world.

Dunno about that as I'm going to the Denver event. As far as I know CSU is the only one that required the seat reservation. I'm probably not going to be able to get to the Denver rally until 11:30 or so, hopefully a bit sooner.

Alright I'm at the Denver event. Over half an hour until it starts and I'd say about 60% full with lots of people hanging around outside ballroom. Also lots of sign wavers outside hotel. I'm pumped!

Just arrived at the Springs rally. Same place where I was at a McCain rally 4 years ago IIRC.
Edit: its cold and windy out here. Crowd starting to build up.

great pics COpatriot, it was hard for me to get any good pics because of the lighting.
i would say there were at least 250 people at the COS rally.
great to see such a variety of folks there.

Ah, I finally got to posting the pics from the Denver rally. Most of these were taken before the room really filled up.
