The 2013 Solo Awards Banquet - Sunday February 23 @ 10:30AM

Post by George Schilling »

The 2013 Solo Awards Banquet is on the calendar! Be sure to mark the date.....February 23, 2014. Better yet, just click here and get registered now!

It's the time of year when we gather to share good times and memories with friends and family as our award winners from the 2013 season are recognized for their accomplishments.

Whether you've won an award or not, this is the time to come cheer for your friends who have. But before we do, we'll sit down and enjoy a traditional Sunday Brunch at the Hacienda. Then it's awards time!

But that's not all......after all the awards are handed out, we'll have a raffle with some great prizes donated by our clubs and sponsors.

To join the fun, you need to register. So get on it! Registration closes February 22.

This is a reminder for those of you who have not yet registered for the Awards Banquet. The time is fast approaching. Get registered ASAP!

This is a great way to spend part of your day. See what your friends actually look like without a hat or helmet! Enjoy a beautiful, historic venue serving a wonderful buffet that rivals that of top restaurants. Believe me, the food is great! Most importantly, be there to cheer on you friends as they are rewarded for their efforts for the past year.

So mark it on your calendar, click on the link and register NOW......while your thinking about it. It only takes a minute. Looking forward to seeing you there!

I would like to echo what George is saying. This venue for the banquet is OUTSTANDING. We went last year, partly because I was an awardee. And even though this year we are NOT awardees, we are still going. I guarantee you that the variety of food and drink, all of which you can partake in, is well worth the cost. And the facility is ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. A combination of indoor and outdoor covered patios with flowers in bloom everywhere. It even has fireplaces.

The OTHER reason we are going is because we have made a lot of friendships over the last year, some of whom are awardees THIS year. This is a chance for us to join in a celebration of their achievements.

Oh, that's right, Autocross is easy, anyone can do it. Well, it may be true that it's easy to DO. But it's certainly not easy to do WELL; as most of us can attest. JOIN THE PARTY!! YOU WON"T BE SORRY. :gpower:

I'm in. My wife doesn't want to come, and Ken's still out of town.

Don't let me sit by myself, that'd bring back geeky middle school memories.

If you can stand to sit with an annoying pre-teen, you're welcome to sit with us, Jay.

Karen's raffle prize is a gift basket from No$ called "Movie Night". Its got all kinds of things that dramatically raise blood sugar so I need to get it out of my living room. ;) It looks so good! Plus some cool movies!

I also have a ridiculously cool champions jacket.

We need to talk and figure out a good drop off time. I'm pretty paranoid about spreading germs though. Robert IS THE PLAGUE.
