BR2007 Dates
« on: January 12, 2007, 11:13:03 AM »
I just got off the phone with Ron Clifton (MagicCarpet).  This years gathering will be held Jul 27-28-29.  Lanes will be available on the 26th for those of you that arrive earlier.

Address:

Creekside Lanes
1450 Trademart Blvd
Winston-Salem, NC

The hotel of choice seems to be the Extended Stay.  They have the best rates and easy access to the bowling alley.

When the date gets a little closer I'll check with the ball companies and see what freebies we can get from them.

Hope to see all of you there this year.

I don't know anything about the courses Toma, but I can ask around.  Tobacco Road isn't super far away, but more than I'd want to spend on a round of golf.  I also wonder why it's so expensive; it looks like they couldn't even afford much grass.  I don't think I've ever seen so much sand!  The other place looks decent.  I'm not in any kind of golf shape, so one or two rounds will be plenty for me.  What day are you guys coming in?  I would assume Thursday or maybe Wednesday?

There will definitely be a poker tournament at my house.  There will be pool also; if we get enough interest, I can do a tournament for that also.  Last time, we just had people playing after being knocked out from the poker.

You guys know anything of Tobacco Road and/or Tot Hill Farm golf course? I've heard good things. Maybe sneak a round in there too.

You can't beat a Mike Strantz course -- he's made some beautiful courses for sure!!  Maybe we should plan a golf trip sometime or take a week next year to play some more rounds...

I'll be arriving Thursday afternoon.  Not sure what I'll be doing, perhaps my friends and I might bowl a bit.  Another thought is to get in a round of golf, but my game is in shambles (went to the range last week to do something golf-related for the first time since last spring).  I have a bad case of the slices and don't hit near as far as before.  But of course, that's why golf isn't easy.

Thursday for sure. If we can squeeze something in Wednesday afternoon and/or Friday morning I'm definitely down.

You don't have to twist my arm to play some golf.

I shall make a valiant effort to shoot below my bowling average.  Heck, I'll even try to beat my PBA experience league average.  

Don't forget about poker at my house (Saturday night?).  Possibly a pool tournament if enough interest and maybe an informal cook out if the weather cooperates this time.

Hi Everyone,

I look forward to seeing everyone this year.


Strider, did we say we were going to put out a shot for the Tourny this year.


Falco, Hope you are coming this year. My kids have been going to bed early so they will have enough energy to keep up with you this year (I already gave in).

Hey Andy,

I forgot what your screen name was here.

We usually have 3 different patterns for the bragging rights tournament.  I think Ron said the Reno pattern would be one of them.  I don't know what the other two will be.  I don't know if he has the pattern, but I'd like to see the TOC shot - 50', but fairly light oil.  Sounds like a unique challenge.  If that isn't possible, a modified Shark pattern might be a good choice for one of them.  Maybe Cheetah or something short would be a good contrast for the other.
