Tony, we are just ironing out a few final details on linking the online registration. But if we don't get it sorted in the next few days I'm sure we can post the print-n-mail version.

We now have about a dozen registrations, don't forget there is an early registration deadline and regalia can't be ordered after that, even though late registrations will continue to be accepted up until and during the meet.

Items have started to trickle in for the banquet auction. If you have items to include please contact me or Dan, and/or ship them to us. Here is one item we just received:

And no, Steve is not going to be auctioned off. At least not without Margaret's permission that is. The stained glass "MG" artwork would make a VERY nice addition to any wall or window however.

Registration info is on this page:

Wow! That stained glass "window" looks truly awesome.

I'm so excited to see whose registered too!

I'm pretty confident I was the first to register this year, because I had to test the online form. Usually I procrastinate for as long as I can. I'm not sure what sort of car I'll arrive in though.

Uh, rental? ;)

I guess we will have to declare a tie for all the West Coasters.

Curtis, Dan thought you should fly into Cincinnati and drive the Roadmaster. Seems like it could be a possibility.

Hey! That's a GREAT idea. Roadmaster is a treat to drive.

Even better now. Though unless we get the pumpkin swapped you'll have to tolerate some noise.
We can put you up here and let you avoid a hotel bill.
Sort of puts me under the gun to get my software sorted but I can always drive Dan's TR4 if not. Or ride with Matt.

Guess we'd better schedule another Roadmaster weekend. Swap the pumpkin, and mount the A/C evaporator.

Yes....as the registrations come through, it would be great if Dan and/or Jim would post the names in a continually updated post....from the number of Spuriites who have contacted me, we will have a strong showing.

Robert Milks
Ralph Ratta
Richard Peterson
PJ
Merv
Bill Heath
Ken Nicks
Ted & Judy

Get 'em in there! Reserving the room is only half the job.
