    Banquet?

    Is there a date for this year's awards banquet? (If that doesn't prompt at least one 'goat' reply, I'll be really disappointed.)

    I've often wondered why like it used to be, not during the same year. I believe it's because everyone's so broke. I'm sure Tony has the explanation of the revenue flow and expenditures of the club and that has in recent years been the reason for the Banquet being the following year. I believe once the revenue from new license app's start rolling in it helps pay for them. Reagrdless Glenn and Tony I'm sure will post soon. Should be a good time and again Merry Christmas.
