[Don_Lee]

I am from Rockford, about an hour from Chicago. I love going into Chicago, and we are supposed to organize a trip to Chicago for all nearby members one of these days! Julz is in charge of organizing it, so direct all questions to her!

Don ;D :wave:

I nominate someone much closer to Chi than me (Mpls ----> Chi = 8 hrs) So you can direct all your ?'s to RandalB..... :P

Hi everybody,
Charles, I was wondering about Ryan myself. He used to be a vice president of GCCA for a while, but he's off the board for few months now.
I'm sure someone in the club will now.

Anybody's going to the auction this Sunday?
