Re: Rally & New Service Bulletin?



I still vot e for Sseptember UNLESS the people mentioned could not be there.
I would say the more people the better. Maybe later in September . Having
said that I am going to do my best to be there no matter what the dates are.
I would say again that I would like everyone to be there so  I  would agree
on any date as I am somewhat close to Arkansas. My only objection about
August would be the heat.     Thanks again Lisa for the time and effort to
put this all together. It is REALLY appreciated
                        Robert
