Net54baseball Banquet at the National 2019 - RSVP THREAD - Friday 8/2/19
 

Here is the rsvp thread for the 2019 Net54baseball Banquet at the National Convention. It is free to all members and is being held at the same place (not sure of the room yet) as in 2017, the Embassy Suites, which is across the street from the Donald Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont. The banquet with open bar, soft drinks, water and horse duvers :) will be Friday night (8/2/19) from 630pm until around 11 :30pm-12am . There will be at least a few speakers again but there might be more too. So it won't be just me on stage doing the worm!! Please PM me if you would like to be a speaker at the Banquet and we can talk about it. All members are invited and their spouses and children are invited too. If there are a few friends in the crowd they are invited too, but everyone needs an RSVP. Thanks go to Heritage Auctions for stepping up and being the Platinum Sponsor again. Love of the Game Auctions is also a silver Sponsor this year. It's appreciated. RSVPs are guaranteed entry (there will be, as usual, a $5 non mandatory donation of which 100% will go to Safe Haven Furever Pet Rescue.). If you don't RSVP you might not be able to get in. IF you do RSVP and find out you can't make it, please let me know. It helps with the hotel staffing stuff and how many tables are needed, bartenders :) etc... All attendees will be asked to wear a little sticker / name tag while there (and filled out there). It helps me remember names as I have a truly poor memory. So if you want to be totally anonymous, sorry, this isn't the place to be. Posting in this thread is the best and preferred way to RSVP but also a PM or email is fine too. I will be keeping a spreadsheet so if you don't post your RSVP here, make sure I acknowledge receipt of your RSVP. Thanks all!!

What's a thread without a card? This was from our BST a while back.

Thanks Leon
 

I'll be there--solo.

Thanks Leon for organizing. I will be there solo

I'll try Leon, but as you know my knee is pretty shaky and I may not be up to it by that point in the National. It is a lot of work and I may have to retire to my hotel to use the heat on the knee.


I'm just saying no Leon, don't want to muddy the waters. Hope to see you at the show!

I'll be there, bringing a friend.

Hello
I’m looking forward to attending +1. My father took me to my first national at Moscone in 1987 (I was very young, I promise!) and we will attend together this year for the first time since 2000 Anaheim. Our first net54 event and I’m looking forward to it.

Hi Leon.

Me + 1

I have only been here a short while, but if it's ok I would love to attend and meet some of you fine folks. It would be me and my wife and depending on the time my 2 year old. Thanks.

Of course, Josh. Someone can become a member the day of the event and probably get in (if you get ahold of me). The gig is from 630pm to 1130-1200am. With a two years old it will depend on the mood they are in :). And depending on who the collector is one of you could retreat with the youngster and the other stay. :)

Everyone is welcome to come to all or any part of it up until last call! Also, I think there is a 3rd speaker now.....Still looking for 1-2 more.

.

Hi Leon:

Count me in! I will be in touch about your offer, but for now I am a 1

See you there.

Fred

I plan to attend.... see ya soon


Be well Brian

Any hi-tech people out there who could possibly create a live streaming camera set-up kind of thing for those of us not attending??

Hi Leon

Mark Macrae and I, plus 2 guests will be attending.
