Hi everyone, A very early announcement for an event still a few months away. Anyway, ... for you early planners to mark your calendars.
Palm Beach Community College Boca Raton Campus (co-located on the FAU Boca Campus) is having a "Focus the Nation" global warming awareness event on Thursday, January 31 for which they are seeking EVs to be exhibited. I have let the event organizers know that that is just a few days after our biggest event of the year, Battery Beach Burnout, which our members put a tremendous amount of effort and energy into preparing for and competing in, so it might be difficult to get our members to come out for this event at PBCC Boca, simply because most of our members will be recovering from BBB and also because this event at PBCC Boca is on a weekday, as opposed to a weekend, which is much easier for our members to attend. But I committed to them that at least *I* will make it and bring one of my EVs. If anyone else thinks they might be up for bringing their EV to this event just a few days after BBB, let me know. I'll post a reminder a week prior to the event. And now for another REEEEEALY early announcement ... as those of you who attended the Keys GLEE Expo on March 31, 2007 may remember, the event organizers had told us that the next GLEE Expo is scheduled for 2009, as it is a biannual event. Well, the Keys GLEE organization has recently changed that and decided to now make it an annual event ... (in order to pack in as many annual events as possible before they're under water, I would guess; ... hey, don't laugh, we're next, with the waves lapping up on our doorsteps not too long after them down there in the Keys; ... hhhhmmm, that beachfront property I always dreamed of but could never afford; ... be careful what you wish for because you just might get it! :-). So there will be a GLEE Expo in 2008, but instead of being in late March, it will be in May this coming year. Wow, talk about hot! March 31 was hot enough down there, but May is going to be just brutal. (I gotta get one of those funky safari hats Cliff smartly wears.) I wish they could have kept the event in March, or even moved it up to February, which would have been even better. But anyway, May it *is* for the coming year ... specifically, May 9-11, again in Marathon (http://www.keysglee.com/html/08_expo/2008expo.htm).
