Mid-west Banquet

[Court Jester]

Anybody have a date for the midwest banquet?

Thanks

[barb_arah]

Yes, I'll be going with Ed.  :)

[Court Jester]

Auh, I'm heart broken.
well seeing how my hopes are now dashed, anyone know what "the" date for the banquet itself will be?

[123user]

I'm just hoping its in a city that's not 7 hours from my house... I mean, the region does go all the way down to Kentucky!  Beloit or Rockford would be the most convenient for almost everyone

[Court Jester]

Last years was in Milwaukee

[RCR_531]

Was it in Jan. last year?

[Super Dave]

Yeah, in addition to the years and years before.  Most likely will be in Milwaukee or Chicago. 

[Jeff]

I mean, the region does go all the way down to Kentucky! 

Do explain that one...

[Super Dave]

Just like Barber being a Great Plains race that one year.

[123user]

I don't mean we race in Kentucky, but southern illinois is still in the midwest region.  There are several people in southern IL that drive 5-6 hours to get to blackhawk, while there are very few that live significantly north of Milwaukee.  Milwaukee just isn't that convenient

probably 80% of MW racers live somewhere in between Madison/Rockford/chicago.  An event in that area is convenient for most.

[Court Jester]

Still no date?

[Burt Munro]

Still no date?

And you wonder why?  The last date you had you drank too much and puked all over her!!

[backMARKr]

And you wonder why?  The last date you had you drank too much and puked all over her!!

" Hello, my name is Rick and I am a professional shit disturber."

[Court Jester]

And you wonder why?  The last date you had you drank too much and puked all over her!!

To be totally honest, I did get totally hammered at last years banquet and ended up puking on some lady's shoes while on my way back to the room.
I don't plan on drinking much this time.

[Eric Kelcher]

I am looking for one.   


Got pretty good idea of when it will be but have to work around the race schedules, Yes some racing starts as early as Jan.

For right now this is where it falls on my list of things to get done

Class championship bonus reports to contingency sponsors
rider advancement list
2008 license/schedule mailer
Contact OEMS re 2008 programs: contingency, classes, dates etc
rule change reviews and get out to various commitees
Prep for FL season finale
Prep for SW season finale
Officials meeting (aka Big Mac)

Regional banquets

unpaid/claimed contingency research
Reconfigure the storage racks in the truck

Plan is to have the banquets at the same locations as last years.

then thrown in there are the special rider requests for AMA licenses, advancement requests, petition to remain amateur, Visas, etc

why does this not surprise me

[Court Jester]

At least there weren't any pocket rockets, electric wheel chairs, Wal-Mart managers, K-Mark clerks, Security, slingshots, Waitresses asking about tattoos, or a designated driver stopping at the edge of a 20 foot cliff when I bailed to yack this time (I hate you so very much for that).

Thanks for replying. I've been curious about this myself.

Also cool to see where the rider advancement list landed.
Will there be something on the ccsracing site about that after you have it done?

[resurection]

Do builders get to join the fun?

[Court Jester]

[Woofentino Pugrossi]

[Burt Munro]

We're waiting for the date when someone asks about something else. 

It's not this that we're waiting for the date that someone asks because someone has already asked about the date for this!

Got it?   

[resurection]

You guys are loosing me .
I wont be lapped though I'm telling ya.
I'll get as fat as the hole track.(holidays ya know)

[MegRyan]

I vote for Grand Geneva in Lake Geneva, WI. It's the old Playboy club and they even now have a water park how can you beat that!!!!!!!

[Super Dave]

I'll bring my thong.

[GSXR RACER MIKE]

I'll bring my thong.

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit! 

[resurection]

Old playboy club,boy your dating yourself it must have changed from that in the 70's
  I went skiing there when younger ,must have been 30yrs ago .
That is a cool place ,Just think of the naughty goings on at a place like that in the 60's!
  (is this what that Enote is for) ::)

[barb_arah]

So, if we end up at the old playboy club, then Dave will fit right in with his thong.

[Mark Bernard]

Lake Lawn or the Clock Tower in Rockford is my vote....
