I am going to Dayton this year, as always.
I would still like the Thursday night dinner, but I know there are people
that do not come in until Friday.
I would prefer the Spaghetti Warehouse family-style dinner down the
street. I would be more informal, no suit and tie and seems like more time
to talk to each other.
Door prizes are not a big deal.
There would be 3 of us, One RTTYER (Me) and two non-RTTer but I have the
car so they have to come.
