   ~Fox Valley Get-Together~

Okay Wisconsin FReepers! We're rapidly approaching the deadline for reservations! I have to have the numbers in to the restaurant soon. My deadline therefore is APRIL 1st. I need to hear from you by then. Are you able to show? I will need the number in your party, plus all screen names and first names of each person attending, for the name tags. If you have nametags from a previous FReeper function, wear them (and tell me so I don't have duplicates made).

If you cannot attend, please let me know also; saves me FReepmailing and PINGing,
trying frantically to flag you down.

---

The details: The ~Fox Valley Get-Together~ will be Saturday, April 13th at the Prime Quarter Steakhouse, Appleton, WI.
The restaurant's bar will be open by five; dinner sit-down time will be at seven.
Cost of the dinner depends on the # of people who show; it will be in the $15-$20 range, per person.
Don't worry; you pay for dinner when you get here - I don't need upfront $.
For those of you who have never been to a Prime Quarter restaurant:
It's a grill-your-own setup; you choose your own cut of meat (or fish) from the cooler, and slap it on the grill,
along with all the Texas Toast you can eat.
There is also unlimited salad bar and baked potato bar.
Be sure to dress casually; you don't want to lean over a hot grill in frilly or expensive clothes.
If you don't care to grill your own steak, for an additional charge a server will do it for you (but that's no fun).

FReepmail me for detailed directions to the restaurant, and for local hotel accomodations.

Any suggestions for making this party a success will be appreciated.

Wish we could but it is tax season! Have a great time and take LOTS of pictures!!

I've said it before; if you don't fly your state flag, I won't know you're in the state.
I only found out you're in the area because I read the old FReeper Fish Fry thread.

RSVP!

If I HAVE heard from you, and repeat ping, sorry. That means I've lost your info (darn WI forum, anyway) ;>).
If you've contacted me but haven't confirmed you're coming or not, please furnish the info.

My wife is traveling to France that day. We are waiting for her itinerary to see flight times. Since the airport is a stones throw from Prime Quater, I should be able to make it. I just cannot be absolutely certain until thursday this week. I will let you know then.

Sorry I must decline this time. Very interested in future events. It would be nice to meet the other few non-idiots in this state. Down with Kohl and Fiengold.

As much fun as getting together and meeting fellow FR “ kook’s “ would be. It’s something I don’t think I can make. Too many thing going on to make a trip across the state. The only way I would be there is a last minute what the hell nothing else I want to do going on decision. and just take off. Hope you all have fun ! maybe next time. Or if you all want to have a get together on the west side of the state. ( I could maybe help set something up if any interest)

Thanks for contacting me regarding your Fox Valley Get-Together !!! . I live in the Milwaukee area, but I never travel very far therefrom due to my personal paraplegic situation and the associated physical comfort problems.

Hence. . . Let me know whenever there's something cooking in or around Milwaukee !!!

I'm PINGING you again because I STILL haven't heard from you!
The FReeper Fox Valley Get-Together is almost here!

I need those reservations by THIS WEDNESDAY (April 3rd) as I MUST know the # of attendees.

If you can't make it, PLEASE PLEASE reply here, or FReepmail me.
I can't read your minds; I will keep PINGing until I get a reply.
Why? Because I will NOT listen to choruses of

"BUT WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US THERE WAS A PARTY?"

when I post the after-action report and photos.

If you've already contacted me, and you were PINGed, there's a reason. I don't have your info, or it's incomplete.
Please re-send it. Remember, I need screen names and first names of all parties attending, so we can have nametags.

[Jessica Rabbit]

As we eat steak...let them eat cake!!!

[petuniasevan]

Last call! Check in or miss out!

[codercpc]

I am sorry I have not responded, I really wish I could be there, I am only 45 minutes from there, but I have my bowling banquet that night.

Please, Please Ping me the next time.

Have a great time.
