Sounds great Marcel. Last year was a lot of fun. I'm sure it will be
even better this year. A couple nights partying on the waterfront in
Lauderdale sounds like fun too.

Hopefully I'll be back from my extended stay in California in time to
get a few machines ready and head on down (I won't have any machines
for sale). Timing could be close though...

Great news. The show is a real asset to those of us down here and was
well attended last year. I only see the show growing more each year.
Thanks for all your hard work (all involved in producing the show).

That's a good idea. Last year a whole lot of people showed up on
Sunday after the article and picture were in the Sunday morning paper.
I expect it will be bigger and better this year. Hopefully more RGPers
will bring some machines...hint, hint. (Been thinking about bringing
my AF*M, CFT*BL and S*S this year.)

By the way, my pictures from last year are still online:

Great job on the web-site, Marcel. Look really great! Do you have
any plans for free publicity this year? I was thinking about letting
the papers and some of the radio stations know about it. Maybe get
some kind of press kit......EMail me or answer back here. If I can be
of some help, I'd like to.

I do not want to step on anyone's toes here, but I know that Charlie
has already started working on sponsorships and advertising. I will be
pitching in a little bit to help on this stuff, but Charlie is probably
the main guy on that stuff for the moment. My guess is that if anyone
else would like to become involved and help out in planning and
execution, you should probably start by emailing Charlie and Marcel
directly.

I am hoping that we will have even more machines and raise even more
money for charity. I would say I am hoping we will have more fun, but
I think that is a pretty tall order given how good a time we had last
year.
