Rumbling Bald Invitational

Quick question,

Do we want to play Apple Valley or Bald Mountain twice next year?

Working out details with the coordinator.

Thanks,

Don

Good morning Crew!

After back and forth a couple of times, I have a commitment to book next years RBI with credit for our rain checks.

Memorial Day weekend will be the 28, 29, 30.

I’ll have the contract in a couple of days and there will be a balance of the deposit due around the end of the year.

I have agreement to book us into the 1300/1400 sections and as Mike Ho**er pointed out, parking and proximity to the clubhouse is much better. Also we will be within walking distance as Lloyd Ho**er mentioned.

If we wish to add a team, no problem. Contract can be amended at that time but will be subject to condo availability in those blocks.

Already looking forward to next year.

Great weekend guys!
I have an idea that I’d like some feedback:

I have called my contact and left a message for callback.
What if I told him to go ahead and book next year and get three condos close, next door to #701 and use our credit/rain checks for deposit?

What do you guys think?I’ll go with the majority.

Hey Guys,

Thanks to the Landrum Boys for volunteering to host our Friday evening meal!

OK Guys,

We are all paid up and set to go.
I’ve given phone numbers for Randy and Demp to have code numbers texted to on Friday afternoon. I know that didn’t happen last year but am assured it will.
We will see, either way, I plan to go to the desk after our round.
Saturday, I plan to have Chuck fill in for me and will cook chili for the group.
All of the restaurants/ bars are open and Lake Lure will officially be back that weekend.
If either of the other groups would like to host Friday evening let me know.
Looking forward to getting this gang together!
