I agree Buff...I think we can do a much better job, and in order to do it we need to all pull together. In the past it has more or less been up to the Banquet Chair to get everything lined out with a little help from the EC at the banquet. I think if we all take on a position such as you have done with advertising we can make this thing huge. I also agree that location will play a large role in the overall success of the banquet, however as mentioned in the past the cost of facilities in some of the larger cities falls outside of our budget.
BTW, you did a fine job as the auctioneer
