If you're bringing a digital camera, or a video camera, please let us know here. In addition, Owen would appreciate any video of your journey, your time at the meet, and so on, for the Meet 2011 video, should he have time to actually make it. Considering the 2009 video hasn't been made yet, though, then that's perhaps not all that likely...
