[Eric Burgess]

Okay, Cathala would need to be 2015 if you want him. You have an open slot
for Gateway 2014.

I'm happy to still reach out to folks and broker something initial as long as it falls to Norm and team to take care of the guests' arrangements, events, and such. I'll always look in but it should be owned elsewhere.
