XLR Rendezvous IV - San Antonio, TX - May 20-24, 2009

.....Well it is official, Rendezvous IV is being held at the Riverwalk in San Antonio, TX on May 20 to 24, 2009!!! No need to worry about the name anymore. We own the name!!!! We will be staying at 2 hotels, the Hilton Inn and the Hampton Inn, both in downtown San Antonio.
.....We will have our first party at my private Suite in the Hilton Inn on Wednesday night May 20th. This party is open to those who are staying at the Hilton on the Riverwalk and also those who are staying at the Hampton Inn. I'll be calling up the hotel tomorrow, to have the party catered.:partyMore details tomorrow. It is time to plan on having a party!
.....The second night Thursday May 21st, also at the Hilton Inn, will be to induct everyone into the XLR Blue Bunny Club. Officers will also be elected. We need leaders to guide us into future events. I don't wish to be an officer but will volunteer to help the new leaders if they wish. I have enjoyed reading the other thread but let's not worry about other forums. This event is OURS!!!!! Keep the count down going!!!!

Video of first Blue Bunny induction at the party!

.....I want to thank Floyd and Maryann Bingel for filming and helping to run the Saint Augustine Run in the fall. At the Hilton Inn party you will see their video of the first "Blue Bunny" induction. Hopefully someone will offer to video the second "Blue Bunny" induction on May 21st.
.....Jean, I am ordering the XLR Rendezvous IV shirt tomorrow morning.

HEY EVERYBODY!!!
I just made reservations at the Hampton, just in case we make it. Cindy keeps talking about going, so everything's looking better all the time. Hope to meet everyone in SA!!!
Jean: when is the last date I can order shirts... it may be last minute before we know if we can make it or not. Depends on Cindy's work...
Alright MT. We can't wait to meet you and Cindy. You guys will have a great time. :rocker:
 
I mentioned to Cindy at lunch today that you guys REALLY know how to party and to do it right!!! I may have scared her off...:ugh::confused::confused::chuckle:chuckle
Don't scare her off yet MT. Whatever you do don't show her the pics of Indy trip, that will definetly scare her off. ;):D:chuckle:chuckle After getting to know you through the site, I think Cindy would be right at home with us. You give me the impression you like to party too.
 
Wah-hoo!

Thanks Henry for getting the name registered. I just sent a message to the other forum putting them on notice that they may no longer use the name as it is Registered and due to there childish actions they have lost in excess one hundred members. :chuckle:chuckle:chuckle:chuckle:chuckle It will be interesting to see if they abide by notice. First Robin

Hi RA, you register with the Secretary of State in your State and it holds up in all fifty states. He can also make a Domain on the Internet and they can not lay claim to the name or website. Just takes a smart Capricorn like Henry, he is the greatest. Thanks again Henry, really looking forward to RIV in San Antonio. First Robin:):):)
