2010 TCC Spring Meet 25-27 March

[Gregg(What's his name)?]

Hi gang hope every one recovered from a fun filled 4th weekend? During our nice Sunday dinner, the Austin TCC started planning on the 2010 TCC Spring Meet.



The Spring Meet dates are 25-27 March 2010. BTW Easter Sunday falls on April 4, 2010.

The first thing that was mentioned was making sure the hotel is available for our annual meeting. I talked with Dee and he had a meeting scheduled for last week, but because his back was bothering him he couldn’t make the meeting. Dee has already been making contact with the hotel on other occasions and some of the sticking points was the parking. The hotel loved us, but doesn’t want to give up all that parking. We can’t blame them for trying to fill up the convention center. The first solution is to convince the Hotel that we brought in almost 300 hotel room days for the weekend Not bad considering it was two weeks after spring break.

Secondly and I think everyone is in an agreement, that we should do away with the tail gate parties. There are enough food courts and restaurants in the area that almost any palate can be satisfied--even during Lent. I think if we can have the hotel cater out Saturday night awards and annual meeting; this gives them a another bone and they might ease up on the parking.

I think one more thing the hotel forgot to consider was the nightly bar tab members of the TCC rang up in the lounge. Not even mentioning the hotel restaurant.

Dee is going to schedule another meeting in the next week or so with the hotel. I plan on going down with Dee and talk with them and hopefully come up with a solution.

One thing we might start preliminary discussions on moving the event back to Austin if we get any bigger.

Which leads me too a topic of concern. If we get bigger we will be needing more help from the outside. If any one has an idea please post it or send to myself at gherdlitchka@austin.rr.com but also add a solution to your idea. We aim to make the 2010 event and beyond even bigger.

I am going to copy this and put this on Club Cobra so the rest of the TCC can view this thread.

Thank you all for being a great bunch of guys and gals.
