Title: Midwest/Great Plains/Great Lakes Banquet Announced
Post by: TiffineyIngram on November 14, 2002, 11:59:50 AM
Howdy guys!  I have got such a cool banquet planned for y'all!  On Saturday, February 8th, our banquet will be held at Kendall's in the Lincoln Park district of Chicago (very classly and a great place to dress up for).  They are shutting down their entire restaraunt just for your awards ceremony!  Although we're not having a sit down dinner, we are having a buffet of their house specialties *AND*, get this, an open bar!  Cost is $25 per person (a smokin deal, considering all you can eat and drink for the whole time you're there), and the mailers will go out in December.  Also, we will have a host hotel and shuttle service (incase you have a lot of fun at the open bar) to be named at a later date.  I now open the forum--what do you think?

Aww...look at that!  Two of y'all already have dates!   ;D  We have the place rented from 7-10pm (this means we must all hurry along Ed Key's speech  ;)).  I'm so happy that y'all like the setup.  It should be a great night, and I am actually getting to go!

You know Craig, I had several different reponses that I was going to put down to that suggestion.  But knowing you two as I do....  I decided it would be best not to say a word.   ;D

Dawn   :D

Excellent Smithers </Mr Burns>

Have you worked out any deals with hotels in the area?  Really looking forward to it!

Don't need no stinking hotel... I live 20 minutes from there  ;D ;D ;D

Oops...Eric's out of town...I thought he wouldn't be able to read the message board...looks like I'm busted... ::)

As far as a hotel, I've talked to one that seems really cool--it's in downtown, about 5 minutes from Kendall's and 15 minutes from the bike show.  Here's the thing:  Their special rate for us is $80/night for a single, $95 for a double.  Personally, I think that's a little high, but then again, I'm not from Chicago so I don't know what the normal price is in downtown.  Any thoughts?  Oh, and if y'all have a hookup somewhere, PLEASE pass it my way!

I'll be bringing my WIFE to that banquet!   :o Knowing you all as I do, I'm probably wasting my breath, but can you at least TRY not to get too out of hand?  She's heard all of your names, so this would be your big chance to prove to her that you're all complete animals, and I shouldn't be hanging out with you!

Well, I guess that's really up to y'all.  Kendall's is in Lincoln Park, a very uppity area of Chicago.  If you would like me to put on the invitations that a certain type of dress is prefered, I would be happy to do so.
