The famous Legg Lake, the Scottsdale Club along with the SoCal Club and Lenny Blake - priceless!

Doug

You're on Doug. I'll reserve tickets to the opening of the Redondo Beach Kabuki Ballet and seek out other culturally enlightening venues as well, especially the Hermosa Beach Transgender Tap Dancing Accordian Players Revue.

[Steven Vaccaro]

I would love to race there. Every time I see the pictures of that place it makes me drool.

[DPeterson]

Ah Tony; too much culture - will be looking for something more simple like something with a view of bikinis. :)

Am going to put this on my calander. Hope I can get a least one of the WI-MN crew to go.

Doug

[Darin Jordan]

This sounds like the place to be next June... Count me in!!

[D. Newland]

I appreciate your consideration, guys! I know it's tough...and getting tougher to travel so I wanted to give you a firm date with as much advanced notice as possible. You know, for planning and such. If there is anything I or Tony can do to help, please don't hesitate to ask.

[ron1950]

hope the races will be on the internet. its just too dam far to go from mississippi......i have picked up a few drag boats from so cal and swore id never drive all the way across texas again ......lol

[raptor347]

I'll be there, I'll drag a few others down with me. I'm thinking it's going to take a shoe horn to get everything in the trailer.

Doug

Doug,

My bikini doesn't fit anymore; maybe we can talk David into wearing his

[DPeterson]

Tony,

We better take this conversation offline. We have a definate communication issue!

Doug

[Jeff]

It's a trap!

[ron1950]

like don said over on rum runner...what happened to ny/nj for next year?

[D. Newland]

They declined.

[RandyatBBY]

I will have to get the Rolling Ghetto smogged and insured so I can attend. I will not be able to run a lot of classes as I did before. too old and I need sleep. How long until a schedule of classes run for the day's will be out? I really need it to be able to plan.

Dream schedual would have a little of everything each day. Not all offshore one day Not all sports the next Not all hydros and Not all scales the last day

[D. Newland]

The schedule will be the next update to this thread. I already have a rough draft, so it will be soon.

[RandyatBBY]

Cool!

[D. Newland]

Schedule has been posted on the OP. Randy-I was able to work with 3 of the 4 nots. Offshore will all be on 1 day.

[D. Newland]

Thank you Great Lakes Boat Shop for sponsoring 1/10th Scale Modern!

[JIM MARCUM]

Count me in for Offshore classes N-2; P; maybe Q; and positively T. JIM

[D. Newland]

Will do, Jim. We'll start getting the official sign ups going after the New Year. Glad to already know of a T boat that will be there!

[Darin Jordan]

Will do, Jim. We'll start getting the official sign ups going after the New Year. Glad to already know of a T boat that will be there!

If I don't end up selling my Gas Sniper 45 hull/hardware here shortly... there may be another one there!

[RandyatBBY]

N-2 Mono, P Sport Hydro, Q Mono,

N-2 Offshore, P Offshore,T Offshore,

N-2 Sport Hydro, P-Ltd OPC, T Sport Hydro,

N-2 Hydro, P-Ltd Sport Hydro, 1/8th Scale.

This would be the classes I would run. Some days I almost want to run them all but I am way too old to do that. I would love to see P-Ltd OPC and P-Ltd Hydro switched, then I would be as happy as a pig in S##@.

[Ub Hauled]

Steven V., are you coming to the West Coast?

It'll be nice to see you NW people and meeting some new folks,
looking forward to it.

I would like to, but as of now its not in the cards.

[raptor347]

I'm limiting myself to 3 classes per day. Just need to decide which 3.

[D. Newland]

OP has been updated with more sponsorship support. Thank you!

If you are in a position to help sponsor a class and/or support our raffle, it would be greatly appreciated. We are now beating the sponsorship drum from now until June 19th!

Hotel and banquet information will be posted shortly.

[JIM MARCUM]

Here's my hopefully final list:

1. N-2 OFFSHORE CAT
2. P LTD OFFSHORE CAT
3. P OFFSHORE CAT
4. T OFFSHORE CAT

Dave also asked me to be (in my words) the "OFFICIAL NAMBA LEGG LAKE NATIONALS SCUBA RETRIEVAL DIVER", and I accepted. So Joe V., you'll get a chance to see my skills in action.

Looks like I will be busier than a one legged man in an ass kicking contest. Gonna be a blast!

Dave, how much is this gonna cost me for entry fees? RSVP

JIM

[D. Newland]

Jim, Thanks for accepting. I'm hopeful that having you signed on as the diver means that we won't need a diver! But, it's good insurance.

I'll have the race fees figured shortly.
