Thanks for letting us know about the event, IC. We had a great time when we attended a few years ago. We'll plan to attend this year! Hopefully it's not as hot as it was that time! Holy smokes it was a SCORCHER that day!!!!!

Mary,

We were really looking forward to participating in this event - however circumstances are against us.

Give us a holler sometime.

PS - ran into your Mom and Dad at the LSCC Classic Saturday - was really great to see them again.

Mary Sr told of us your 'prior commitments' - congratulations.

I am going in for (more) surgery next Sunday (not being operated on until the following Friday! - long story).

I'll tell Jelena 'hi' for you.

Stop by if you are out our way.

All the locations have BT Club Members assigned, but you're welcome to come along, Vette or no Vette.

Sounds like fun. Maybe we can wrestle up a few more people, too - it's for a good cause.

Just a few more days until the run, weather is going to be dry Saturday so that will make for a great Corvette/Hooter's day.

Just got notification that I'll be handing out a Hooter's promotional...visit 20 different Hooters (and I know some of you guys do that!), and you'll get a certificate for 200 free wings!

See y'all Saturday!
