... Scott said he was coming (and reserved)...and me.

Looks like at least a dozen cars at present,

Yes, I’m in at least for Wednesday night and Thursday drive. May have to jet back to Richmond Thursday evening. Haven’t changed my reservation to the group rate yet because I haven’t had a chance to call and see if I can cancel my Thursday reservation if I need to.

For those who plan on arriving on Tuesday, we're going to have a small dinner at Emiliio's. If you'd like to go, let me know before Wednesday 02/27 so I can add more to the reservation.

Ken, is there an agenda for this yet? Saw your note above about folks arriving Tuesday. What are the plans for Wednesday and what time is the drive on Thursday starting?
And since Chuck helped getting my name on the list I owe it to him to make sure his is on there.

Shoot if this weren't during the week I'd be all over it, I live over in Charlottesville. So close. Only another 35 years until retirement!

Only restriction to the hectic schedule is that we have to be back in time for dinner at 1800.

You could come down with a severe case of work-itis.

Funny. I'm going to be in Richmond for the Richmond Kickers Jefferson Cup. It's a college soccer showcase for the top youth teams in the region. I might be able to come a day early (Thursday) and come say Hi!

I don't have anyone to carpool to the event this year... so I'll bring the Berlina!!!

Just booked a room (Gov't rate was $20 cheaper - nice to be working for the Military, no Gov't Shutdown issues plus tons of benefits!)

I reserved a room for the 27 and 28 (dead day before I travel to Richmond (see post above). I'll be coming in super late (9-10 pm) on Tuesday. Could anyone let me crash in their room for that night?

Just text me (9379037188).
