If you haven't received a PM specifically stating you are good for Saturday night, you need to reach out to me via PM (or I'll be at the seminars tomorrow).

EVEN IF YOU HAVE PAID, the above still pertains to you.

I could give a ride to two or three people.

Folks, if you're reading this, sweetwillie has gone to a lot of trouble to get this organized, please reach out to him to make sure you cleared the list, etc. As someone who has organized dinners before, it's not a lot of fun to have to chase down attendees.

I'm sure you'll have a great time (once everything does get finalized). Wish I could join you but I'll be selling raffle tickets back at the hotel.

I'd also like to point out that stopping by the restaurant/bar upon your return is a great way to continue those miles & points conversations & meet more new people :)

Cheers.

11 cars, this should be about 40 people worth of transportation. If anyone else has a car, please let me/the thread know. To those driving, if driving a larger car, consider 3 in the back as restaurant is sooo close to the hotel. I can take 4.

Dinner is at 7:30pm, so if driving, leaving by 7:15pm is more than enough time to get to the restaurant which is 1 mile away.

As for a meeting place, I'm thinking the front lobby would be fine, just to the side of the front entrance. PLEASE BE PROMPT, no one likes to wait for a straggler(s).

I have a car as well. I think Angst is riding with me, so I have room for 2.

Willie, it was great polish food and I think I even slightly offended one blonde polish woman! So all in all another great dinner! Which was par for the course as a couple of my ex wives were blonde poles

Thanks again for setting it up.

A huge thanks to Sweet Willie for organizing - what a fun evening! I had a great time meeting FTers from all over.

And I'm pleased to say I am not one of the blond Polish women Ceres offended. I think. :o
