The schedule is done...the info is here...

WHEN??	Dec. 8-10,2006 (friday-sunday)
WHERE?	Phoenix, AZ (and surrounding areas)
WHAT?	7 skateparks in 3 days of skating and fun (*see detailed schedule)
WHO	Everyone is invited! Come one and all to skate, hang out, and have fun!

For AoSFest IV, trying to hit the most (and most diverse) parks possible in 3 days.....7 parks. As always, this is simply, an informal "get together" for everyone to finally get to meet, skate, hang out and have fun.


For lodging, I am trying to work out a deal with the hotel I often stay at in Tempe. It is the Springhill Suites in Tempe Arizona (480-752-7979). A lot of us will be staying there. There are several other hotels around as well since this is near the university. Anything around Tempe would be convenient. More info on the hotel as I find out.
