So who is headed to the Triple Crown races? I know someone made a thread before about this, but it's disappeared, and I'm curious who I may see while there! Right now I'm definitely going to the Derby, with full intentions of the other two races as well. I already informed my Fanfoto manager that I won't be working those two weekends (the Phillies are away Derby weekend so that didn't matter). I could make a list here of who'll be going.

Derby
Alysse
J Slotman
Jonathon P.
Karie M. (?)
Laura F.
Nikki
Steward

Preakness
Alysse
Amanda S.
J Slotman
Jonathon P.
Nikki (?)

Belmont
Alysse
Nikki (?)
J Slotman
Jonathon P.
Steward

Haha, I'll probably be able to soon. The only issue is that our finals are the week after the Belmont, and I'll probably be rushing around like a lunatic trying to get my final prints done for photo, and my final printouts done for digital photo. But I'm going to work my rear end off trying to get them done the week before, since my final photo project is theoretically going to be from the Derby.

And I'm going to assume I'll be putting you down for at least the Belmont? ;)

:P Your mom would make us feel welcome! But it wouldn't be the same without you!

*Edit* I know some are attending for sure, but I don't want to mark names down without them first saying to mark them down. So even if *I* already know...tell me it's okay to put you on the list!

Yay for me going to all three!

The Preakness is going to be the day of my graduation, so it's going to have to be a bigger party than it usually is for me!

That's very sad! I got lucky with my finals. They start the Tuesday after the Derby so I have enough time before for going to Kentucky and then enough time after to get to the Preakness!
