MORE INFO

Had a good afternoon with Gary today, going over details and formulating plans! I can tell you, this I'd going to be a great rally! We've got some cool activities in the works, but still enough free time to visit with friends and make it enjoyable.
Statistically, Nashville is within a days drive for more people than any other US city. This fact, combined with the success of the EI Facebook page, makes me think this is going to be a gathering you don't want to miss.
Be on the lookout for more details as they become available.

I think it is Sonnie's Meeting + Rally and the 3 host couples are just helpers.

Besides that, there is no conflict. Plus, I am doing things to help promote the Kansas event too. The TN event passed through and was approved by the board. When it comes right down to it, we are all on the same team here. Anybody that wants to help either event, the best way to do it is sign up early and spread the word.

LMAO Le Roy I just found I was one of the helpers I'll be at Sonnie sat and see how that happen I can help you guys out a little but not much to far from you

How about 2 custom Eagle Jackets for door prizes I can arrange that along with a new Snap/On tune up kit for the 2 stroke guys but I don't want to do that without a good turn out

We have to try and get a good turn out Sonnie wanted the rally so the east coast people could make it before the kids return to school

Dale I am well aware the board approved the Tenn rally I would like to come to meet Ken Arnold in person talked to him on the on the phone several times but I like faces to go with names

Le Roy give me a call Sat@ 480-threeonenine 1662 I have a couple of names that want on the ballot but not as write in, how you handle that is your business that's a new one for me people wanting to be a Club officer lol

I'll give Sonnie the names I asked them to contact you but they have never meet you and don't know you I have no idea what difference that would make

Hey Clifford,

Just had a long technical conversation with my friend Ken Arnold form Smyrna, Tn. I saw in your post above that you have had a long-term dream of meeting and conversing things technical with the man.

This is a personal offer that if you will attend the Great American Bus Rally this October in Tn., I will use my influence with Mr. Arnold to get you an up-close and personal meeting with the young guru. As a matter of fact, Ken (we're on a first name basis) and I have already discussed the matter and, he has agreed that if you wlll behave properly there is a good chance for an autograph!

Looking forward to seeing you this fall,

Best Wishes,
Gary

Gary,

I am so impressed that you stuck your neck out and promised your friend that Clifford would give him an autograph as an enticement for him (Clifford) to show up.

I would like to meet Ken but never ever a dream though, he seems like a sharp guy without all the baggage some people that have conversions and want conversions carry

You really don't want to know why I won't come to that rally but you and Bill have fun when I get enough I'll tell for right now just enjoy and I'll meet Ken without the help thanks

Sorry Clifford,

As Ken said, we were "just trying to be a little humorous."

No offense was intended.
