November 10th - SPC

Postby Native » Sun Oct 07, 2012 10:29 pm

Hey guess what?
Registration opens in a few days.
And guess what?
Events have been filling quickly, so don't wait too long to register.
And guess what?

It would be totally gnarly if someone would volunteer to act as Event Chair!

signed up :)
Racing against my NEON is like getting in a fight with a girl, if you win you, you can't brag about it, and if you lose, you hope nobody finds out!

That settles it. The ROJ brothers are chairing this one!

Unfortunately with the new strictly enforced "no children" rule I am tentative pending making plans for the boys. That will keep me from being able to chair events unless the stars align. But I'll be happy to continue to volunteer others.

Hold the phone! Jim Swayne has volunteered to chair this event!

I think the co-chairman position is still open... or has Liz been volunteered?

Oh, and I took a quick inventory as the trailer was being packed today, counted:
About 6 cases of soft drinks, no diet.
4 cases of water.

Better late than never, I hope, but thanks very much to Jim and Ed for running the show. I missed October, so I'm really looking forward to this one.

Looks like 55 entries, so far.
