West Coast Mini Rally Potluck ....

[Ray Davis]

A word about breakfast.

Jim Skiff has chipped in to sponsor this breakfast for us! Yeah Jim!

The diner has provided me with 25 special breakfast menus. To the first 25 people who participate (I have them menus and will pass out at the resort), they will provide a free breakfast off the special menu, tax included.

If more than 25 want to eat, they are going to provide us with 15% off coupons that are good any time at the diner during our visit.

I'm hungry already!

John, I replied to your PM b4 I read these posts...

As stated in the reply, it is too late in my opinion to get one going.. When I did the LHC deal, I started a couple months in advance, putting the arm on members, suppliers and personal friends to get quality swag for the auction.
Without good stuff, you are going to have a crappy auction. Plus we have always had a representative from the recipient group there to accept.. Would feel funny not to have several thousand dollars to hand them!
Many people just got done with the POG auction in OKC, and gave deep and hard (insert joke of choice here). Hell, I paid a couple hundred bucks for a bag of dog treats just to make Skiff eat one!

Being the auctioneer is just a small part of arranging the auction itself in its totality.

So my friend, if you have the connections to conjure up all the stuff and want ME to help YOU, I seldom turn down requests for help.

However for the reasons given, I think we should take a powder on this one and just have a good time. I can personally accept a nice donation on behalf of the NRA for you if you want that nice warm fuzzy feeling! If its more than 100K, I need another rep there though, so let me know

Ray,

I will be glad to help Warren Holm who, imhop, should be lead auctioneer. Every POG Rally that I have attended has included a fun auction which leaves behind, to the community, a very warm feeling about POG. Even if its only 50 bucks to the local battered womens shelter, we should all feel good about doing this!!

Bringing the thread back on topic. Kathy and I are bringing a main course item. Looks like beef stroganoff at this point.

Ray,

If it looks like beef stroganoff now what will it look like come rally time?

[jello_jeep]

LOL... I bet it will look a little greener!!

We are new to this group so I may be posting in cyber space. I will be bringing spaghetti and garlic bread.

[Ray Davis]

Perfect post Fred, welcome. We look forward to meeting you in Las Vegas.

PS: Jello, you're absolutely right. Way too much to expect ....

I don't see any deserts here...we will bring the deviled eggs and also whip up a banana cream pie.

After reviewing the list it appears there will be an abundance of main courses so we will switch to bringing a desert which will accomplish two things, satisfy my sweettooth and make it easier on me. Always a warm feeling of satisfaction when I can manage to make things easier on me.
