Bring a rod with you and show off your work or if you need help with a rod bring it, Someone here can help you.

We will be doing, Weaving, CCS, labels and much more. You can bet somewhere in the room we will be discussing most aspects of rod building.

Bill,
I'm looking forward to it, I oughta be there in time for dinner on Friday. I'm really interested in learning something about weaving and just meeting some more rod builders. If anyone needs a ride from the Baltimore Area, I'll be leaving here on Friday morning and returning on Sunday morning. Glad to have some company.

Thanks Clyde,

That really is a good drive for you. I think you will find it worth the while. Are you staying at the Ramada?

When I find how many are coming Friday I will make reservations at a very good German bar that has some excellant food.

Thanks for coming, I look forward to meeting/ seeing so many of you again. (Yes Joe Azar, I mean you too).

Thanks Billy,

As you know it is very rewarding to host a gathering like this. I could never do it with out the help of The ORBS, Mark Crouse, Mike Barkey, Alex D. and all of the great sponsors who have produced so many door prizes.

Mike and Bill,
I oughta be there mid-afternoon on Friday. I'll be staying at the Marriott Ct Yard on Metro Circle... only cause its a freebie and is only about a mile away from the Ramada. I can give either of you a call on Friday, compare plans for evening? I still owe MIke a couple cold adult beverages... now seems the right time to pay up!
