Exit 5 team was like, can you please make a video to show them the event space? Because today we're dropping the first tickets to the 300 or so people that are on our waiting list. And they're like, can you please drive there, film a quick video? I think it'll help hype up the event and we can start to sell some tickets. So I'm gonna go do that right now. Alright. So I just drove down here. Before I take you inside, I just want to show you. And keep in mind it's early May here. It's going to be even more beautiful in September. But here's the view. This is where we're going to be. This is about a couple yards from where we're going to be all day. This is why it's not like a tradition. We're not in the Marriott, we're not in a conference center. This is what you're going to have a view and access to all day. So this is the lake, Lake Champlain. I could go in right now. I guess I could go in there right now, but I don't have the right. I don't. I don't have my bathing suit. So anyway, you'll have act. We'll be right here on this lake the whole day. It's beautiful. All right, so I'm inside the space right now. I'm trying to be quiet because it's a co working space and everybody's working. But it's beautiful in here. Open it. Open space, plants, lighting. It's beautiful. I'll add a couple more videos in here so you can get a sense. Right behind me. What I'm going to show you next is where our actual event is going to be. I'll have space for 150 people in there. Plus everybody can be out here hanging out, drinking coffee, networking, talking to each other. And there's some special. There's some separate breakout rooms where you can go and hang out. So this is the space where our, our whole event will be. It'll be all in this room. And then we'll be able to go out here and we'll have all of this area over here. We'll have the tent. We'll have happy hour. Ben and Jerry's. Hang out right here, right on the lake. It's gonna be beautiful. Are designed to give you a couple specific things to get smarter and bring back. We want to make it practical and tactical for right now. But then we're also going to have breakout groups because we know that you're here to hang out and connect with your peers. By the way, check out the View, right? We also want to have breakout groups with we're going to match you with 10 to 15 people based on after you buy a ticket, you'll fill out some information. We'll hear about where you're stuck, what you want to learn about. We'll match you with a small group. We'll break out the whole room into small discussion groups so you can go deep on a topic and get unstuck with something that you need help on right now at work. Plus, we'll have lots of breaks and time to go and hang out, say hi, connect with others, eat, walk around. We'll have an after party, a dinner. We're going to do a light workout in one of the mornings. It's just going to be a beautiful space to come and hang out so you can come get smarter about B2B marketing for a day and a half in Burlington, Vermont. But also stay downtown. Enjoy the area, go out on the lake, walk around downtown. It's a good excuse to get away and do something different in a new town, in a new state. And to do something different than going to a traditional conference at the Marriott Conference center and come hang out with us. Say Hi to the exit 5 team. Meet us. Hang out. We're here. It's going to be small. 150 people max. I hope we see you at Drive in September.
