Atheist Days 2008 Bash is Cancelled


   

Due to insufficient ticket sales, we have made the unhappy decision to pull the plug on Atheist Days 2008.

Everyone who bought a ticket will receive a full refund.

Refunds:
If you payed through PayPal, you will receive a full refund from PayPal.
If you paid by credit card, you will receive a full credit on your credit card.
If you payed by check, you will receive a check in the mail in a few days.
Those who provided operational funding will also get checks back.

Thanks:
First, thanks to those who actually bought tickets - we are truly sorry that we will not be able to hold this event - at least not this year.
Thanks to Jeff Wismer and Ellen Birch for the heroic efforts they put into this event.
Thanks to Kirk Hornbeck for getting us incorporated.
Thanks to Rice Odell and Christopher Arntzen for their financial support.
And thanks to the many people who offered help and encouragement.

The Future?
Perhaps we will be able to hold this event in the future. This year, we couldn't quite get the numbers to work. But, the event is worth holding and the location is beautiful and I know the company would be great. For now, we will step back, reassess the situation and see what we can do with more time to plan and gather resources. Stay tuned.

(Don't forget to cancel cabin rentals or hotel reservations you made for Atheist Days.)
