Saturday's weather is looking good for a "Meet in honor of Marcus." Therefore, some of us are planning the day as follows:
11am memorial service
lunch (location TBD but suggested places so far are Mekong, Golden Corral, Jason's Deli, and Sam & Ella's)
1:45 pm drive (2pm departure via Hwy 412 east, then twisties north/east towards Jay, estimated time = 3 hours round trip, I suggest we avoid Spavinaw)
freshen up for dinner
7:30 dinner @ either Zanmai (1402 S Peoria Ave) or Osaka (11016 E 81st St) depending on how many we have
We need a headcount for dinner. Please post if you plan to join us for dinner.
This is not set in stone so please check back for changes.
