We have reached the capacity that we can hold at the Georgia Meeting. I am still taking names - but for a waiting list.
See y'all next weekend!

Frank : How many have signed up and what is room capacity? We should have this set up for live online streaming to all PBer's next time. What about topics? Now is the time for non-attenders to suggest a topic.

eric With tables arranged in a square shape, we can fit 32 around the tables. There are two or three bar stool seats so 35 max. We could hold more if we used a podium/audience style seating but I went with the square table arrangement. I think that will allow a more relaxed interactive session. I have 34 on the list as of Friday afternoon Jan 27. I have not turned anyone away yet. Topics are posted on my web site at http://www.frankpinkston.com/topics.htm See ya soon Frank

Eric
Thanks
Phyllis Lea, our local member at Lake Sovereign, has done much of the legwork - scouting restaurants and hotels, etc. She went to the clubhouse, measured tables, and sent me a drawing of the possible layouts. Phyllis has been GREAT and the meeting will be all the better for her hard work.

Thanks to all who were involved with this. That includes Phyllis, Frank, Duggan, and many other "behind the scene" participants. I am excited beyond words about what lies in store for next weekend. Everyone have a safe trip, and I will see you there. Deb edit: Frank can I have a chair versus a stool please?

Man am I jealous. I found out about this too late to plan a trip to Georgia. Bob did a mini-seminar at my home here in Illinois last summer and kept my pond lovin' friends enthralled for hours. Hopefully this ck cept will expand and there can be seminars in many locations.
Please don't forget while at the seminar to slip a little something to Bob to help him recover from his recent disasterous fire.

Duggan you are a man after my own heart. Add some cold pizza and a canned coke, and I might marry you. edit: I just looked up the weather forecast. Temps will be 60 degrees as a high with a 60% chance of thunderstorms. It doesn't look like we will be able to electroshock anything (except ourselves if we go outside).

Hey Frank:
Can you post a quick list of members who will attend? Just curiosity on my part (I am really excited).

Goobers in the morning? Come on Bill, I was expecting grits, side meat, biscuits and gravy, and hen fruit. All followed by more clinkers to sop up some m'lasses.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Yep Deb weather not looking good but forecast will probably change three times b/f sat. I wanted to bring new electroshock boat but will not be ready for another two weeks. I will get the old one prep. since it has not been in use since early Nov.
BTW folks are welcome to come up to our headquarters on Sunday morning before heading home, it is about 15mins up the road. Headquarters, that is funny I mean barn(office), and my ponds. If folks want to catch some quick trout they will bite a bare hook or about any fly. I will have to leave by 11:30 for consult in the mountains.
