My buddies asked me to invite all the wine gang to next years meet

<DIV =message style=": left; OVERFLOW: auto; WIDTH: 99%">It looks like the the last weekend in sept ((26th and 27th)) 2009 is the target date for the degray camp out.
Some of us will arrive thursday or friday the 24 or 25th.
also because we hope it to be an anual event, some of us will stay to at least monday (28th) or even later untill the following friday ((oct 2nd)). The idea is to make it a week long event for those who can stay or for folks who cant get there untill a few days later

The beginning weekend date seems set but others will chime in. Folks should have plenty of time to plan and to save money for the trip </TD></TR>

I think thats a great idea Scotty, I would like a more casual gathering that lasted a few days than a hit and miss meeting with fellow board members, and I'll probably never make it to Texas for the FVW annual.

Will it be at the same location as this year?

Same location

((lake de gray state park not far from arkadelphiaArkansas))

and we are announcing it early so folks can plan.

It would be a thrill for some more of the finevinewines bunch to show.

My friends love to show off the cooking skills.

Hmmm... I've never been to Arkansas... I Googled the map for Arkadelphia and I see they have a road called Hollywood Road. Is that for all the moooovie starz who come into town? Will I get to see some of them famous movin' picture people there? I can think of worse ways to spend a few days in the fall...

So are they going to be let out early for good behavior to attend? Maybe the gathering is good for their mental therapy and recovery - or is it just the booze and eats?
