Heh.
Also Saturday, for those too old for school...
There's no such thing as "too old for school." (I just did my every third year refresher course March 29-30.)

Looks like fun for all at this, but I may have to pass due to other commitments.

Hope everyone has a great time!

Tom

I am confused...is the big event on Saturday or Sunday? I spoke with the Region, and unless something bizarre happens, we are planning on bring an 08 xB to this!!!

I was planning for Sunday, but the more I read, the more it looks like Saturday is the day. HELP!
