| I attended the 3rd Annual celebration last October and had a great time.  I hope there will be a 4th Annual celebration this year? (And no I am not volunteering to be the planner  ) | | |

| Thanks, Eric. I thought it was a good idea as well, I'm sure at some point others will chime in as well. | | | |

If there is interest enough, I would plan such an event.... :-)
So, who's interested?
Thoughts on timing and venue?

| OMG, a Vegas virgin. LOL.
I'm interested Vegas or not. After Christmas would be ideal. | | | |

| Maybe President's Day weekend. That is one of those holidays that most people have off, and that doesn't require either religious observation or family visitation. Sort of like a "Get Out Of Jail Free" card.
I am definitely interested, but it will be date-dependent for sure. | | | Beta testing a new signature. | |

| Yeah. I was thinking about something a bit more low key. President's Day is a big travel time for places like ski resorts, Disney and Vegas. | | | Beta testing a new signature. | |

| I count about a dozen people that have expressed interest so far. I'm sure there are others our there that would like to participate. If so, please reply to this thread so Brad can get a feel for the level of interest. I went last year and had a great time!  | | | |

| I would be interested. Presidents weekend won't work for me, unless its in the Northeast someplace. Otherwise, I might suggest somewhere in Texas (Dallas?) | | | |
