Cookout/BBQ at Ran's during Dixie Cup II - Friday Night
« on: August 18, 2005, 09:42:44 PM »
I'm starting this as a separate thread from the main Dixie Cup II thread because it's not official yet.  I'm trying to get a read on the level of interest.

In speaking with Ran the other day, he mentioned that he might like to have a get-together at GCA World Headquarters (a.ka. Morrissett Estates) on either Friday or Sunday night.  As Sunday is most likely when people are going home, Friday is the more likely candidate.  Apparently Ran only lives 1-2 miles from Pine Needles, so it would be in the area where people are staying.

The is one small glitch that I'm still trying to get clarification on, and that is that dinner is included in the pricing of the package at Pine Needles on Friday.  So I'm checking to see if they would allow some $$ amount to be removed if you went to Ran's instead of eating at the Lodge.  

I'm not exactly sure what all the details would be for Ran's place.  He mentioned mostly making it an outdoor event (since he has kids), but that's as far as the discussion went.  

So assuming Mrs.Morrissett gives her approval, and we can work something out with Pine Needles on the Friday meal, are people going to be in town by say 5-6pm on Friday, and would you be interested in attending?

Brian,

I'm defintily interested, even if they don't lower the price at Pine Needles.

I agree with Jason, although it would be nicer if Pine Needles came through with a price break.  We could all contribute it toward the cookout and the cost of maintaining this site.

Sounds like a great plan.

Jeff,

I can't imagine any reason for saltines at a BBQ--you really need to get out of Chicago and come see us down south! ;D

Dale,

I currently only have you on the "tentative" list for DCII.  Are you now officially moved to "confirmed"?  If so, please make sure you call both Pine Needles and Tobacco Road to register.

The BBQ/Cookout at Ran's is officially set for Friday night.  We're still working on a starting time (expect around 5-6pm) and Pine Needles will provide a shuttle to avoid parking/driving issues.  They are also going to make a donation to GCA.com for an amount that would have been charged for Friday's dinner at Pine Needles Lodge.

Brian,

Unless the plans have changed Ran is playing golf on Friday afternoon at 2 PM so it's doubtful that a 5 PM time for the BBQ would work.

Ran said to plan for the Cookout to start between 6:30-7pm, and after you're done stuffing your faces, there will be a discussion about how to improve GCA.com.  

I'm pretty sure that's code for... "Mrs.Morrissett will want you to hit the road so the kids can go to bed."
