Anyone know if an European such as myself could possibly arrange to attend this in the short amount of time between now and the time of the event?

I will be there! I sent out the RSVP email just now.

Yay!

Stain, I think you should be able to. You will just need a flight and a place to stay (it sounds like a sleep over since we bring sleeping bags, but if you want to stay longer then you'll need a hotel.). Both of these requirements are doable and will probably be cheaper if you make arrangements sooner rather than later. I will be flying into the states on the 25th from europe myself.

Oh. My mistake. You will need a visa depending on your country and then getting a passport will take a few weeks. Sorry about that.

Your country should have some sort of informational website or agency to help. Where are you from?

You don't need a visa Stian. Just a valid passport.
