OK, we have a MacNaughton tent!

It should be in slot 52-55 or thereabouts. Linda at LLCS tells me that is over by the Heavy Athletics and the food vendors. We will be a little bit off by ourselves with 4-6 other clans, but that's OK. Note that last year we were in slot 42, so it won't be in the same place.

Casey has all the tent stuff, but I'm in a bind. Because of the communications glitch, I committed to setting up the Heavy Athletics equipment, so I might not be able to spend much time helping Casey with the Clan tent...I just don't know. So any X-Markers who happen to want to arrive early (say 8:15 AM) or so and help Casey with set-up, the first beer is on Me!

Looking forward to seeing everybody there on Saturday!

Regret that I won't be joining y'all. Have a wonderful day, I'll toast you in absentia.

Best regards,

I don't know how early the ticket booth is open, but I should be able to get a ride in early with w2f and help Casey set up. (Sadly I haven't even ordered my MacNaughton kilt yet).

Cheers

Aaarrrggghh! I'm not making it this year. Both of my kids have soccer games on Saturday, and I'm coaching one of them. I'd heard that AYSO really means All Your Saturdays are Over and I'm inclined to believe it. Next games...

Sorry to hear you won't be able to make it down.

Please make sure to put the Nor Cal Rabble's Burns Night on your calendar for early 2008!

Cheers

Does this mean I do not need to bring along the other shade tent? It appears the size of the crowd will match the size of the venue - that is, small.

I think we'll probably be a small enough crowd that we won't overwhelm the MacNaughten tent, so we can likely do without another tent.

Be well,

I agree wit' the Goddess ( I usually do, don't I? I'm no fool)...I think we're OK with the MacNaughton tent, and besides, we can always go raid the MacLarens, too! Bring a chair, tho!
