Thank you, Ken, Lisa, and Mariposa citizenry.
Great story, Boo Dawg.
Your concern for the cleanup of the Sentinel Beach area may be a real one, but let's hope for the best. Maybe a volunteer effort is called for?

Note the correct e-mail address! Also the dates, September 26th - October 1st.
(Ken, the NPS website indicates that Sentinel Beach area is closed until Memorial Day weekend. It sounds like that's the 'usual' situation - with high water this year, and maybe lots of forest mayhem from a hard winter, who knows?)

This is the correct spot to go to when registering. Do not use caps in the address, like Jon Beck's post says. (Typos happen)
You'll reach Ken Yager's email.
Great to know you'll make the show, Scott!
And Bood Awg, it's always great to feel stoked. See you guys there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2-ALL NAMES IN YOUR PARTY
3-Preferred campgrounds (Camp 4, Yellow Pines, Upper Pines, Tuolumne)
4-Please note that camping is usually more or less full by mid-May, so please also indicate if you would accept a site in Crane Flat or outside of Yosemite Valley in case of availability or if you would like to be placed on the guest list in case we cannot confirm camping for you at the time of your request

Interesting. When emailed my reservation, I got Allyson and Linda's reply. It didn't have Ken's name on it anywhere. Besides, Allyson and Linda are handling reservations. FYI.

Hi All,
The email address for camping reservations is yosemitefacelift@gmail.com.
We had a forward-thinking autoreply up prior to May 1st; I changed the way it was phrased yesterday, midday, to minimize confusion.
If you received the autoreply, we received your email. If you didn't receive the autoreply (we did receive some bounce backs), are you allowing email from yosemitefacelift@gmail.com? You should because we will confirm your request via email.
Confirmations will go out later in the summer.
Allyson

Hi, I am here :)
Thanks for the offers, I put into consideration ;)
Thank you Cosmic for care about me I am really grateful.
Yes, I would like to take part in facelift, the whole time. My whole story started two months ago, when I started to look for a climbing partner in Yosemite, and I ended up here.
I am still looking for somebody to climb with :)I am more than happy to meet you there :)

Camping request sent. Auto reply received.
Looking forward to wandering around the woods looking for baby burritos, mud falcons, cigarette butts, and plastic water bottles.
Quick question: Are tutus required for this year's MeatFest (I'll never look as good as MooseDrool)? Or are we going with a different theme? I want to make sure I am properly attired.

MEATFEST, where the manly men masticate.
Scott, you should stick with the tutu theme, but use more balloons, PLEASE!
