Default fall atlantic city bb party

here we go again. it is time for the 'when should we have it' poll for the yearly atlantic city bb party. i will leave this up until the end of june but please start voting as soon as you know what dates you are available. the party will be at either the hilton or borgata depending upon which is more willing to set aside meal spaces for us. that part of the poll will start after this one is done.

please vote for as many as fit your schedule.

Hi, Sherry,Donna & I are good for the first 3 weeks of Oct. We leave for Aruba on Oct.28.My son & daughter& their others are going with us.We are staying at the Carribean Palm Village.Rented our 2 weeks at Playa Linda because we're going to St.Maartin May 27 with Donna's brother & wife,& to Datona, Florida in Sept.
Looking forward to AC get together.If any more local events are planned,send me a message.We frequently are too busy to check message board.Have you ever tried Timbuctoo? It's right down the road from Gunnings.
We're going to miss Kevin, but I hope he makes AC in Oct.What made him move to the Keys?I wish we could coordinate a trip to Aruba with a lot party members.
I still say we should have a big Aruba party in Las Vegas.The Friday after Thanksgiving would be perfect.(We're there from Nov.23 to28.)Gives other sections of country a chance to get together.

Tom & Donna

I'd love to go as well, but those dates are right smack in the middle of pigeon racing season with all the big $$$$ races....I'll have to check the calandar and see if every weekend we have one. Also, I'll have to check to see if the Tropicana wants us to stay free again.

I know I'm not on this board often, but the fall Atlantique City antique show is the weekend of Oct 20. This would be ideal for us, since we are antique dealers & could use this as a business trip, also. I'm always ready to go anywhere at the drop of a hat, but Bob is harder to convince. This weekend would give him added incentive.

Pigeon racing season? How long have I been away??

I wish I could join you all, but this year the party is gonna have to go on without me - unless I can convince you to move the party about 1400 miles south

This is funny, I never knew you had these AC BB parties before. Just found this post and after 47 years of living in NJ we are moving to MD in September but I am in.

I want to meet all you interesting people.

You didn't know we were so talented, did you Kevin?

The pigeons pay for our trip every year, plus our spending money while there. In fact, in 1997, they paid for our bass boat as well.

Sherry... I have a customer based in VA that has a location near there. Timbuktu is a must when we visit. We'll be back up there in a few weeks. I'll give you a yell next time!
