Is it time for another BR gathering?
« on: January 13, 2004, 06:52:08 PM »
I checked the post office and all the pictures are down so I think it is safe for the Ballreviews chatters to return to Winston Salem.
If you guys are interested we need to start working on a date. It looks like I will have a busy year this year coaching on the road so I need to get a BR gathering on the calendar. Let's start by everyone interested in attending post a MONTH ONLY...then we can narrow it down. We want to pick a date that the most people can live with. Right now JUNE is already out. I am too booked up that month.

Also let me know if you have any special events you would like to do.
I will offer free coaching to all that are interested. I will also buy the first beer
I am sure we have a lot of new members on the board that were not around for the last gathering. So those of you that were here last time may want to post if you have a good time or not.

This would be at Creekside Lanes in Winston Salem, North Carolina
Where bowling only cost $1.50 a game and the coaching is free....for that weekend

BowlingKid, if you plan it they might come

I'd love to go the NC again and maybe be able to spend more time.  The best time for me is between June 20th and August 20th...summer break  If April, April 8th to 11 is open for me.  I am in Reno the 1st - 7th.

If in May, let it be mid to late May.  My university schedules final exams for late April/early May.  There are also PBA tournaments in Fayetteville (4/30-5/2) and Rocky Mount (5/7-9) that I will likely be bowling in.

Otherwise I'm ok with May.

I had a blast at the last gathering at Silver Fox Lanes.

I'm able to come down any month if the first beer is on Ron, sheesh. Just plan it and set a date. I am in the Washington DC area so if anyone wants to break up a long drive down to NC from up north, we can carpool from here.

If we have enough people attending we could do a BR tourney. Would be fun for bragging rights.

Silver Fox Lanes.  LOL!

A tourney is a great idea.  More than one pattern like last time was a great idea.  If Peach is coming again, NO HANDICAP.  I think he learned too much from Nicanor.

If May, any possibility of Memorial Day weekend?  I might be able to manage to come down with the flu on Friday and make it a 4 day weekend

Ok it looks like we can narrow it down to 3 months. March, April and May.
TP likes Memorial Day weekend which is the last weekend in May I think.
So let's see some weekend dates for those months.

May 28-29-30 works good for me.  May want to put the whiney lefty on a different pair than me this time though.

SrKegler, you just don't want to see me kick your butt on the same pair as you.  You can always claim you had the tougher lane condition

The Easter weekend is also doable for me.  We are on Spring break the week before.

OK who can make it the last weekend in May? Monday will be a holidy for a lot of folks.
Anyone? Anyone? Buler?
I don't think I will try and do a Demo Days this time. I had to spend so much time putting that together,I didn't have enough time with my buddies from BR and some had to leave early.
We can do a tourney or two though.
