We get together right after the Welcome Dinner and stay on til we either run out of cigars, talk, energy, or whatever we are imbibing. BTW, the wine tasting is going on inside the Dining Room at the same time we are on the Porch, so people are always going in and out...sitting with us awhile and then going back inside. It's just a great way to kick back and enjoy our first evening [after a long drive to get to Fontana]. The Cigar Salon is free...no cost to the participants. I always bring more than enough cigars [and the selection will fit most everyone's tastes], as well as cutters and matches. Any donations will be collected and given to the Graham County Food Bank.
Always a good time. Mark, I look forward to ya joining us, bring Crash with you. Mr Jim and rum4 better be there too. Nathan, why don't bring MM this year? Jim
This year I will get down there in time for the Welcome Dinner and then some smoke signals. The last couple of years I haven't arrived until 11:00 PM or so.
I'm planning on being there on Wednesday to hang out with the curmudgeons! I even found someone to teach me the way of the curmudgeons....
:cornut: Every one chip in and have a "Boss Appreciation Evening" where you show him your plans for an "eMINIparts" booth with on site sales(at the Dragon) and marketing of the company. Remind him of all the numerous other companies that do the same and increase their business doing same. If worse comes to worse, take him along. Jason
We are going for our first time! Super excited! Got accounts for my husband and I done...looking thru the schedule of drives...got the time off... motel booked...many of my Chicago Mini Motoring Club friends are going...cant wait! Looks like something to really look forward too!!!
Any and all are events you will remember. MOTD is closer to you and sooner, so that would be a good start for the year!
