Hi All,
In the interest of portions for the potluck breakfast
Bill Kaehrle, the breakfast captain, ask me if I would
get a head count of how many from this list that were
attending the BBTB event were also going to attend the
potluck. So, if you would please send me an email
to: sjohnso2000@yahoo.com if you plan to participate
in the potluck breakfast and how many will be in your
party attending with you. This information would be
very helpful for us to approximate how much food to
prepare.
Thanks so much for your cooperation!
Cheers!
Steven
