As a relative newbie to the Forum weekends (2015, then not again until 2024) I want to thank everybody involved for making the 2026 Forum Weekend so much fun. Most thanks go to Oliver for once again organizing the entire affair, making the arrangements for Saturday’s dinner, and all his tireless work to make sure everyone had a great time. Thanks to purplekow for hosting the opening pool party on Friday afternoon, where we had the occasion to meet and greet each other and get the festivities started in fashion (or lack of it!) The Saturday dinner was sumptuous and another opportunity to renew old friendships and make new ones. Finally, Sunday’s pool party was fantastic, despite less than cooperative weather. Once again, Oliver offered his lovely condo, and he was greatly aided by wonderful friends, Steve and Nate who hosted, and Nate N who made the eggs and served as paramedic, all of whom hopefully made him feel like a guest in his own home.
Many thanks to all who worked to put this together and all who attended. I can’t wait until next year.
