TFCTFN

I figured I'd be the first one to put this out there. I'd like to make sure that I get there this year.

Can someone make this sticky and start throwing out some dates?

I can do any weekend except for 1/18 and 1/31.

Thanks,
Rick

I'm with you Rick. I missed last year for the first time in many years. Any weekend but 1/18 and 1/25 works for me.

I'm convinced the only reason I didn't win any of the raffle prizes last year was I only bought 25 tickets....I'm coming ready this year!!

I have a framed award from 2011 entitled the TFCTFN Raffle Luck (Not) Award. I never win anything so John gave me the award.

Didn't you donate a box of refurbished condoms?

Okay TFCTFN is set for Sat. March 1, 2014. That is
so close to my birfday that I should get a special prize.
Do I need to carve that date in stone or will you
accept it???? Don't make me get mad.

John has to pick a date. Simple as that. There are so many other events going on in competition to our TFCTFN that it simply boils down to John picking a politically correct date that doesn't step on other organizations toes. Once we have a date , we can start making plans.

I apologize - let me drop my paying job for a moment for my non paying job

I am going to see if March 15 or March 22 would work - how would those dates sound?

April 5th
This date was penciled in at the VFW Fairhaven with no deposit therefore it is important to see if this date works for you guys. I have until Saturday at 3:00pm to make a deposit or I can get a phone call from the VFW stating that somebody wants to book the hall.
Let JohnR know your plans
