@Arizona mom Does your son have a girlfriend? This is the second week in a row that my son has called his girlfriend and no calls to me. :-)
I am not a soccer fan but I am watching Real Madrid vs Barcelona so I can tell him play by play's (haaa) I will be like that one player scored on that other colored team and then something was called and a red card was given, not sure to who, but then the other guy from maybe the same team scored and then the score was something to something can't remember but the game was good :)
A reminder that RSVPing for Sarge's MeetandGreet helps him to plan the food since he provides dinner (free to you all but he accepts any donations since he and his wife pay out of pocket....auctioning off the state baskets that many families make/bring to the MeetandGreet helps greatly to offset his expenses).
If someone forgets to RSVP, please still go to the MeetandGreet. There is not a list of names kept where you can't come if you didn't RSVP. But it would help with determining food amounts if you do RSVP before PIR week.
navymom73: Many put the number their family will be for the MeetandGreet in the comment section at the bottom.
bananabear: I would suggest that you contact Sarge for info on local tours, etc. He is very knowledgeable and will be glad to share what he knows. You can email him at:
johnspadaro@att.net or text/call 847 212 0246
Yes, Bookster, come late to the MeetandGreet if you can! Better late than not at all! You may miss dinner but should get to meet lots of people!
Good Morning!
Great, then we will try our best to be there. I want to meet ALL of you in particular! :)
Bookster,
The Meet & Greet runs until about 9:00 pm. If you want to meet anyone in particular, you should pm each other cell phone numbers~
