Annual get together?

Post by Eleven »

Hi, Chris and Brian!!! Hello, kitties!! And chickens!

Do plan to host the annual get together in August again? I know there were very few of us last year, but it was really nice to see you guys. I should should just drive over and visit more often. Too bad you're always so busy WORKING. What's up with that?!

Anyway, I should get back to work too. Hope there's a get together :)

Hi Shawna!

This year we have to push the get together back to the 3rd week of August, so it will be Saturday, August 20th this year.

We have a bus tour coming at the end of July, which is when we usually have the get together, and we are still finishing up some construction work in the meeting room inside that we haven't had time to complete, so we decided to move it to the 3rd week of August.

Work has just been insane this year, but we are hoping that the rest of July slows a little so we can get the construction done :)

Thanks for asking, and hopefully you are able to make it out this summer, even if it isn't during the open house.

Take care,

Chris
