OK, here we go.  So far we have what I would call firm committments from:

Kev3inp and Diane
Alakazam (Gary) and Joanne
Janderson and Kat
Graille (Jason)
Magic Carpet (of course!) and Karen
Joe Falco, last I heard.
Dr. Joe, Mindy & the Chaos Twins (sounds like a band. )
Robuster w/wife and a son or more.
bowlerdawg
stopncrank
Strider and his wife
crazyyankee, wife and an appearance by Frank. at least for Fri


Tell me who can't make it, too:
 Jess:  can't make it this year.  
 Nollster: not this year.
 novawagonmaster: not this year  

Who else is out there, yes or no? I'll edit as we go along.

There will probably be a few from bowlingboards.com, too.  Colleen made her presence felt there, as well.  I like Dr. Joe's idea of making the tournament the Colleen Becker Memorial Bragging Rights Tournament.  What say you all? I wouldn't mind naming the whole shebang after her. And pardon me if I tear up when I speak of her. She made the Gathering for us, and I'm sure a lot of you feel the same way.

I did Alakazam already, but I was hoping the others would chime in to confirm.

I won't be able to make it - but if you want commemorative tshirts printed for the occasion - let me know - I'll do them very inexpensively. Even put TP in a black circle on the sleeve.
Come up with some sort of artwork, and get sizes to me.
You'll be impressed with the shirts themselves!
