Dragon Slayers Unite

$ 50.00 per person

Due by July 1st


This is the best price applygirl could get for us. We understand that this is short notice to get the fees in but Fontana is requiring that we give them a final headcount along with 50% deposit so we need for everyone to get your fees in the mail quickly. We need to have min of 80 people in order to satisfy the contract with Fontana.

Banquet Dinner at Fontana -

Hickory Smoked BBQ Pork
Applewood Smoked Chicken
Home-Style Cole Slaw
Mixed Green Salad
Roasted Rosemary Potatoes
Fresh Mixed Vegetable Medley
Deserts
Rolls w/Butter
Coffee, Tea, Water

The planning committee has been working hard to get your fee's down this year due to so many employer cutbacks and we understand the hardships this has put on so many people. With this being said we have made some hard decisions. We will not be having food with the Registration on Thursday night and we have Lanyard's with Badge Holders which were donated. This is a savings of 35.00.

The planning commitee will be covering some of the cost this year and we are not including any donations to SGK in your fee. We will be accepting donations at registration and also at the Event Dinner.

Registration will be held at the Lodge Downstairs (time tba). ChiliSky and myself will be hosting evening activities Thursday and ChiliSky has a surprise for Friday Evening. There will be runs on Friday and on Saturday also a Tubing on the River Cruise. More details on the runs to be posted soon.

Please make your checks payable and mail to :

K Hayse
207 Tecumseh Trail
Frankfort, KY 40601

(and in the notes please put your forum name)

ChiliSky and myself will be at the Regional Meet at Myrtle Beach and also at T2TR. We will be happy to collect your fee at that time if that is convenient for you we will also have registration forms and waivers. Look for us.....

Thanks Everyone.....

I think Kim just posted it here to get to update people locally. Here is the original thread with links:

http://www.solsticeforum.com/forum/f35/4th-annual-sol-sky-august-dragon-updated-information-55714/

I think KYGXP mentioned that there might be a few extra spots left. Not too sure though. You might want to PM her and see if any are available.

As for the $50/pp, it's for dinner, t-shirt, other registration goodies, etc.

OK Folks....


18 DAYS TO GO......


I have to give Fontana Lodge a Final Headcount for Dinner so if you havent sent your fees in then I need them no later than Friday the 24 so that I can pay. I had a few people cancel so there are only 3 spots left. This is your chance to join us.

On everyones lanyard this year will be a schedule of events so that way you dont have to keep up with a piece of paper. Each car will have a tag that will go in your window that tells ya what group you are in along with the meeting place and time. On the back side of that will be a list of everyone in that group as well as your Road Captain (lead car) also the walkie channel the group will be on and what time you will need to be back at Fontana.

If you have reserved your room but you havent registered on our Dragon Website Solstice Sky at the Dragon (http://www.solsticeskyatthedragon.com/) then you have not agreed to the wavier and will not be able to join the planned activities including the Meet and Greet and the Dinner. Please let me or one of the committee members know asap if this is the case we want everyone who wants to join us be able to. If we dont know you are planning on joining then there will not be any t-shirts, no Dinner, no packets, no name tag, no assigned run so please register and get you Dinner fee to me.

I am sitting on the deck at Fontana right now and I am so excited about seeing everyone. Myself, JrsNo1Fan and ChiliSky are here today to check out the run, put the order in for the T-shirts and to finialize the event. We will be posting more information about the Meet and Greet, times, schedule of events and pool party information in the next day or so.

Thanks and I will see ya at the Dragon in 18 days.....
