RSVP - 8th Annual 2009 Net54 National Dinner- Thurs, July 30, 6pm -12am

No problem....But please ask them to show up though since we will be having that many more head count.....We have had about 6-8 others today too, so I think we might even surpass last year's 135 in total when it's all said and done....which, for this economy, is saying something....It's always good to have more memorabilia guys. regards

That's fantastic that we are above last years total !!!

Leon, it's surprising how many people will turn up for a free meal in hard times

[CardTarget]

Leon, sorry for the delay. I'm in and looking forward to it.

With all of the help you did in getting the old board ported over to this one, even if you wouldn't have rsvp'd at all, you still could have come to the Dinner...See ya there...take care.....

Leon,

I'm in for myself and a guest if it's not too late.

Thanks!

[Leon]

I haven't turned in the count yet, Joey, so you and a guest are in.....however, everyone at the dinner need to be wearing a nametag, including me, that will be given once there....I want everyone to know that going into it....If you don't want to be known this isn't the place to come to...regards

[Jewish-collector]

Here's a suggestion at the dinner. Before or after the speakers (before everyone starts drinking ), let everyone stand up & give their name (or Net54 name) & what they primarily collect. I think it would give a chance to hear what everyone collects and newbies/lurkers to get to see guys who post on the forum.

who will be speaking at the National?

[Jewish-collector]

I hope Josh Evans of Lelands will speak again this year, but instead of speaking, he just let us ask him questions. That went really well last year. I hope to have some really good questions to ask.

Can' make this year, but Baltimore is already in my sights. I hope you all have a great time and enjoy the company of people who truly get what this is all about. With all the negativity and greed we see in this hobby on a daily basis, take the time and try to enjoy what should be the true meaning, a get together of hobby we all love!! I have learned so much on this board as a novice collector. I don't think I would have made it without all the information it provides (even if everyone doesn't agree all the time.) Hope to meet you all next year. ENJOY!!!

Tim
