Gentlemen,

How much interest is there in attending a 3rd Annual Barrett-Jackson GT Forum dinner? Last years very successful event was held on Thursday night and I believe that is the best night to hold it again this year. My highrolling Forum Member friends are generally on stage Friday and Saturday nights bidding on the expensive iron and many members do not arrive in Scottsdale until Thursday.

Post up here if you are interested in attending and I will put it together.

Happy Holidays!

Here's the latest list.

Gentlemen,

My apologies for being a little slow on the uptake in getting and keeping a list up-to-date. My mother and father are both having some real health challenges at the moment and assisting them has kept me from spending a lot of time here. In any event, I'll definitely be ready for a few cocktails with my good friends on Thursday.

Please do me a favor and check the list below. Confirm that I have you on the list if you are coming, that I have the proper number in your party, and whether or not you will be bringing your GT. If you are coming and I don't have you on the list please let me know and I'll add you. And if I have you on the list and you will not be able to make it let me know that also so that I can give the restaurant a fairly accurate count.

The restauranteurs that accommodate us at these Arizona functions require no deposit from me in advance as they are my friends. Still, I think we owe them as accurate a count as possible so that they do not deny other patrons tables that we ultimately do not use. So please, let me know ASAP if you need to cancel.

This third annual Barrett-Jackson dinner promises to be the absolute.......same as the first two!! And that's a very good thing. I look forward to seeing you all on Thursday!

Chip

Is there still time to request a seat at the dinner table? I'd like to get a chance to meet the people behind this most-successful forum...

FYI -
Please keep Chip and his family in your prayers. His mother passed away unexpectedly this week, and his father is quite ill, as well.

Dinner is Thursday 1/15 @ 7pm, @ El Chorro Lodge in Scottsdale - There's still room for anyone who wants to come!!An updated list of attendees will be posted soon.

We're listed twice (#19 & #22). Does that mean we get to eat TWICE as much? :lol
