US fridge magnets
by Marcin Juszkiewicz
Hello
About 2-3 years ago I started collecting fridge magnets from visited
cities. [1] photo shows my current collection.

But for some US cities which I visited during last few years I miss such
because collection started later...
Cities are:
- Dallas, TX
- Orlando, FL
- New York, NY
- Oakland, CA
- San Francisco, CA
So if someone comes from there I have a question: can you contact me and
bring me one fridge magnet to my collection? I return costs of buying
such of course.

Interested in an unofficial day-trip to Niagara Falls?
by Stephen Gallagher
Hello Flock attendees!
Flock is in Rochester, NY this year, which is only about a 90 minute
drive to Niagara Falls, NY, home of the famous Horseshoe Falls. I've
been considering renting a car/van to make the trip out there on either
Tuesday Aug. 11th (I'm due into Rochester that morning around 9:30 am)
or Sunday Aug. 16th (I'll be flying out at 7:15 pm, so I'd need to be
back to the airport by about 5:00 pm or so).
I figured I'd send this out to the list and see if anyone else would be
at all interested in splitting the cost of a rental vehicle and taking
the drive out there. Depending on the number of people going, the cost
of the vehicle could be anywhere from about $76 USD (4 passenger
economy at $19pp) to $224 USD (7-passenger minivan at $32pp). Of course
if there's a lot of interest, I'm sure we can sort out multiple drivers
and vehicles to keep the costs down.
To be clear, this is a privately-funded trip. No subsidy will be
provided by the Flock organizers. If you are interested and want to go,
funds will be coming out of your own pocket.
If you're interested, please fill out the form I've created at
http://goo.gl/forms/zyycm9Dr1u
It includes options for several departure times that I would not be
able to attend, but if interest is high enough we might arrange other
cars.

Last chance to book a hotel room for Flock
by Ruth Suehle
Final warning! Today is the last day to book a hotel room for Flock!
Visit https://resweb.passkey.com/go/FLOCK2015 to book your room.
Reservations made after today will not be at the Flock rate, and if the
hotel fills up, you're just out of luck.
Cancellations must be made more than one day in advance, so if you're still
figuring out the details, book your room now and cancel later if you have
to!

Boston to Flock Rochester Rideshare?
by Adam Holt
As the bus appears canceled this year (
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/flock-planning/2015-June/000746...)
would anybody driving from Boston be willing to accept gas money and a very
slim, hassle-free passenger Tuesday Aug 11th and/or Saturday Aug 15th?
I can meet absolutely anywhere/anytime 24x7 in Boston on Aug 11th if it
helps (or even after midnight if someone needs help driving 6 hours safely,
and prefers to avoid hotel fees that evening). Likewise I can return to
Boston absolutely anytime Saturday Aug 15th -- or Friday Aug 14th PM if nec,
Cheers!
Adam
