Metro Atlanta Police
Possible Kilt night here in Atlanta. This is on our website www.emeraldsociety.com, and was asking for the members participation for this event. I wanted to let the X Marks community know about this event.
Honor Guard Fundraiser
On August 10, 2007 from 5:00pm through 10:00pm the Metro Atlanta Police Emerald Society's Honor Guard will be hosting a fundraiser. The event will be held at "On the Border" Mexican Restaurant. The restaurant is located at 400 and Lenox Rd.
A por tion of the proceeds will go to the Honor Guard to offset the costs they incur throughout the year. Honor Guard members are not compensated for their efforts; they represent the Emerald Society and their respective departments with pride.
The event will be called "Cops in Kilts". Our Honor Guard Members will be in their kilts, serving the food to all the patrons in the restaurant. Our own B.C. Williams will be playing his Pipes and we will have a Master DJ throughout the event. It should be a wonderful evening. So come out to have some drinks and great food, and support a group who supports others without fail.

What a great idea and I wish I could be there. I will be in spirit though
"A veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life." That is honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it." anon

I wish I could be there, too. It sounds like home.

Caber Dave,
Sounds like a great event, do we need to make reservations if we want to attend?

Which one?
Georgia 400 and Lenox Road do not intersect. I googled and found 2 restaurants that are near them: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&i...ta&btnG=Search
One is at 1 Buckhead Loop NE # 130, Atlanta , and the other is at 3060 Peachtree Rd NW, Atlanta
At which one will your event be held?
Thanks
NOTE: I called and found that it is the same place with 2 addresses.
Smoking is allowed only outside on the patio, so we don't have to worry about leaving with smelly kilts that need to be cleaned. Thanks for that.
What time(s) will the piper play?
Thanks

Not neccessary, but if you have a specific time you can be there, then you might want to set one up.

From what I've been told, he'll be there most of the night.

The band doesn't have their own shirt yet, we just have the Metro Atlanta Police Emerald Society t-shirts, hats etc.
Any other info I get I will pass along. Thanks for the response.
