Greg,  Please add Jon Winnick from OFCC-infrequent GCA poster but he jumped when he heard that Jeff Goldman will be here! ;D

If I make it, I'm requesting a seat next to Flamion so we can discuss a real sport (swimming) and the rest of you can discourse on golfing and GCA. ;)

Mark,

I know the dinner will be a good time, but to stay here instead of going to play in AZ is above and beyond the call of duty!

Greg, hence the  >:( emoticon.  If you could get my brother in AZ a job so that he and his family could move out of Mom's/my house, I'd be more likely to jump on a plane, but since that hasn't happened yet, I'll see you next week. . .

Just a quick reminder for tomorrow nights dinner at the Erie Cafe in Chicago at 7 pm. I plan on getting there early, so if anyone else is close, please join me for a pre-event cocktail. Also, a number of attendees are planning to bring a bottle or two of wine. Erie has a reasonable corkage policy, so join us in doing so if you'd like.

Bob Lively, our guest speaker, will be making a presentation on his experiences as superintendent at Flossmoor over its three and 1/2 year renovation project.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Sorry I missed it, My daughter had her 1st HS quad track meet and won High Jump and set her school record (only a freshman).  Proud Papa.  Hopefully next time as I enjoyed the last one.

Indeed, a great night.  Thanks to everyone for attending, and to Greg for setting it up. A special thanks to Shelly for regaling us with background stories about some of the other long-time GCA members.

Fascinating.

Hope we can dine again soon, or better yet, tee it up, even sooner.

A great time was had by all (or so it seemed)!

Good to see some familiar faces and also meet some new ones.

Thanks again to Greg and Jack for setting it up!

It was great seeing everyone last night. Perfect spot for a get-together.

Hope the next time we all get together it will be on a golf course!

I had a great time and can't wait to tee it up with some of you this summer.  Did anyone snap a pic? Wife is still convinced I went to a strip club.
