Greetings,

For all attending the Ford GT Forum Barrett-Jackson dinner here are the final details. Please look at the attendee list and if you're on it and aren't coming or if you are coming and aren't on the list please PM me so I can give a pretty accurate # to Don & Charlie's. Please let me know if you are bringing your GT as special parking will be provided and a guard will watch over your GT during dinner.

January 17, 2007-Wednesday---7:00 PM
Don & Charlie's Championship Dining
7501 E. Camelback Road
Scottsdale, AZ 85251
(480) 990-0900

Directions from the auction: Take the 101 freeway south to the Chaparral Road exit and take Chaparral Road West (right) to Hayden Road, go South (left) on Hayden to Camelback Road, go West (right) on Camelback to 7501 E. Camelback. The restaurant will be on the south (left) side of the road. If you get to Scottdale Road you missed it and went too far. My cell # is (602) 430-4877. If you have a problem or question please call.

We will order from the full menu (including cocktails) and the bill including tip will be divided by the # of people attending. No attempt will be made to adjust anybody's tab because you brought kids or just had a salad, no drinks, and water. If your party has three souls and 45 total attend, your bill will be 3/45 of the total tab. As such, if anybody wants to order a bottle of Dom or wine, you should go into the bar and pay for it separate. All individual cocktails, beer, & wine, will go on the tab and be divided with the bill.:cheers :cheers :cheers

It will make things a lot easier if everybody brings $20.00 bills in sufficent quantity to cover your parties expense. Trying to run 25 credit cards would be impossible.:ack There is an ATM at a bank directly across the street from Don & Charlie's.

Have I missed anything??

See you all soon.:banana :biggrin :banana :biggrin :banana

Yes Dear...:biggrin :lol :biggrin
Piccola told me that Don & Charlies have a dry cleaning department, I was planning to bring all my laundry from home, plus the drapes and have them done and figured it would be a hell of deal, getting a 44/45% discount...
care to comment??:willy :eek :willy
Just kidding, thanks Chip for setting this up, your way of splitting the bill is exactly what we did in Vegas at the Palms.:wink

Yo, what days should we come? If we get there for the dinner on the 17th, what day do the festivities end? I need to book a flight tomorrow.

I might as well just move to Scottsdale. Who needs employees?

p.s, good hotels near the action?

Festivities end when you can't take it anymore. You've been here, so you know ........ When to come - let's see, perfect temperature here, Detroit?

And I see flying again? Take a Chip bag (sorry, Aloha) just in case.

Anyway, many good hotels in the area. One of my favorites is the Hyatt on Doubletree Road (480 991-3388) - many pools, great food and bar - just plain cool spot.

Up scale is the Four Seasons (by me) (480 515-5700) or the Princess (480 585-4848). Another "in the area" is Best Western (480) 951-4000. If anyone else needs ideas, send me a PM.

You and the big C could also camp out here or Chip's or a combo (I'm volunteering him).

I agree wholeheartedly. With the major exception of the GT Forum.

Looks like the Scottsdale Dinner has a quorum for the Forum's B of D meeting for the 1st quarter of 2007. :thumbsup
