Hi Everyone,

Sorry this is a little late. Please let me know if you will be attending the 2011 ACAEUM Annual Dinner on Wednesday, August 3 at 7:00 pm. I believe everyone enjoyed the new restaurant "Rock Bottom" last year and I will try to get us a reservation there again this year.

Thanks
Martin

So Frank, you will be missing GenCon this year. The auction just will not be the same.

Wow, how many Gencons have you missed the last 30 years, Frank?

Wrong. ;> I should be arriving late Thurs or early Fri. EE is staying at the Conrad.

My first was in 1979, and I haven't missed since. Also made it to 3 or 4 GenCon South, both GenCon Easts, and 2 GenCon SoCal, iirc.

Last years venue was great, I vote to go there again

Games can get you through times of no money but money can not get you through times of no games!!

Sad to say, I probably won't make it this year, snapping my streak of Acaeum dinners that started when you first invited me in 2007.

You see, EE has a room for Thurs, Fri. and Sat. nights. While the hour and 50 minute drive over would not be such a big thing, the return, with a brew or two and a full meal in me, could well be my undoing.

On the other hand, if someone has an empty bed in their room on Wed., well......

Okay, so it looks like everyone still wants to meet even though we will be small in numbers. 2011 Acaeum Dinner still on for 7 pm at the Rock Bottom in Indy.
