Thanks to the board and volunteers that set up, put away, worked the sales tables, cooked burgers, Charlie for his pulled pork and all that lent a hand when needed.
Wouldn't mind accomodations closer to Carlise and a bit nicer. I'd be happy to look into this for next year.
Saturday night dinner needs a new venue as Stocks is no longer the steak house the we heard it was! I thought it pretty much sucked, the food was not worth the price charged!

The hotel leaves a bit to be desired, a pool and bar for instance, but after the horrible experience I had this year I was begging for the registry hotel. The drive isn't too bad either, get the car warm, blow out the carbon, have some fun. But I'm not opposed to looking for another place either. I checked at the holiday inn express that's right near the show fields $250/night. I've never done the registry dinner because it was simply more then I would like to spend, shame it wasn't as good as it used to be
