I'd be interested in coming to the event. I imagine a few people here at EM would like to go as well. Kev, If we need to arrange transportation I can speak to a friend of mine at PWT - Pacific Western Transportation. They have a variety of vans and small buses, and he would probably give us a deal. (don't quote me on that, but I'll see what I can do). I guess it will depend on how many are traveling from this area.
We should do more events like this. It's summer. Time to get out of the office and turn my Monitor Tan into a real tan. Ha. N Nolan J.

Cool. Great to hear you'd like to be involved, and thanks for offering to "pitch" in (pun intended :-). I've gotten a few more expressions of interest and hope more may come during the week. I've not yet spring this on the other CFUGs (like Albany, Syracuse, etc.), but was waiting to see how things went with you guys. Sounds like it may very well happen. :-) More as the week progresses. /charlie > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On > Behalf Of Kevin Towes > Sent: Monday, May 27, 2002 1:10 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [CFTALKTor] CFGolf event? > > > > I like this idea....
