My schedule right now is:

Sept-Anime Weekend Atlanta
October-Seattle Public Libraries
Clairboune School, San Marino
Nov-San Diego
Dec-Monterey Park, CA
Hawaii
Jan-Cal State Pomona
Feb-Cynlee's school

May-Europe (tentative)
National Cartoonists Society weekend
June-Pittsburgh
July-San Diego

Now if only somebody could have followed through on my suggeston Steve wouldn't of had to do all that searching. :lol:
On Nov 10, 2005 I wrote:There used to be an “Events” schedule on the website and I was wondering if it would be useful to have a “sticky” or “announcement” thread in the NEWS section with the same type of info. Basically, it would list all of Stan’s upcoming appearances (dates & locations). This would make it easier to see where he’ll be within the next year or so without having to open old threads. Think of it as a large Post-it® note that only the moderators could adjust as new info comes in.

It could also be "read only", if that's possible.

OK, I lost the bottom part of the last quote (Cynlee's school appearence in Feb. etc.) when I did the original copy and paste, and I just fixed it.

All of Stan's posts concerning the above listed appearences are right near the top of the Dojo News Forum, except for the last one which was actually buried in a Dojo Marketplace thread.

I think an upcoming appearence schedule AND an upcoming release schedule would be cool and convenient, but as far as convention appearences go, Stan usually provides information in advance here on the forums, so it isn't like the information isn't already here. (Seems like an isn't too many in that sentence?)

Abayo....
