Introducing the 2009 version of the Lotusphere Bloggers Boat Race (no boat required)

The last few years Warren has coordinated the Lotusphere Bloggers Boat Race. Unfortunately since Disney replaced the Swan Pedal boats with electric boats it has not been much of a race (and really I am not just saying this because I beached my boat last year!) Over dinner last summer at Collaboration University, Warren and I were discussing this when a new idea was born-  The “Lotusphere Blogger Open”.  It will be 18 holes of Miniature golf at Disney’s Fantasia Gardens Miniature Golf course which is in walking distance of the Swan and Dolphin. Since Mini Golf is a bit different logistically then a boat race we are planning on holding the event on Thursday evening following the Closing Session. The idea would be to have groups of four or five starting around 5:30, and wrapping up in time to let people head off to dinner or whatever plans you might have for Thursday night. We will have more details and a site to register up soon. For now if you are interested in participating please drop a comment here, so we can have an idea how many people to plan for. (remember you don’t have to be a blogger to participate) If you are a Lotus Exhibitor as in years past you will be hit up on the show floor to provide some prizes for the event, but if you are interested in sponsoring the event, or offering up any prizes get in touch with me please.
