I see that only Judy is off the first week of July, and I have some more days, so I'm looking for that week also.
July 3-6 = 4 days
August 3-24 = 15 days
Total = 19 days taken
6 days left to be taken

Our family reunion looks like it will happen the week of July 14 through 20, so I'm intending to take that week off. I may take the week before or after (but not both) as well. Any issues let me know, as I'm confirming bookings in the next day or two.

I feel the need to point out that participation in the Vacation/CTO blog is voluntary, not mandatory. Officially, the unit manager is responsible for tracking staff vacations. Like other units on campus, we (HCMC, collectively) decided that individuals would track their own, then submit them upon request. I have to submit them once yearly. Furthermore, your vacation and CTO files were never intended to be shared with other members of your unit, and the university certainly does not require it of you. If you choose to use the blog as your official file, fine. However, it is not required.
Also, I feel the need to point out that posting preferred vacation times first on the blog does not constitute dibs on times. Our unit is small so staffing can become an issue (mainly in August) but vacation requests are not determined on a first-come, first-served basis. Supervisors have some discretion about vacation requests (see Collective Agreement). I mention this because staff members have brought up the topic on more than one occasion in the past. There has been concern about getting vacation slots during peak months such as July and August.
