Thank you Buddy Walker!!!

I've told you before and I'm sure everyone else who participates in the Events at Saluda feel the same way. I get more out of the shows at Saluda than I put into them. To see the Crowd that we had Sunday enjoying themselves is reward enough.

Buddy does a lot of Logistics work in advance of the shows and has it down to a science, but this time he had to send out 3 times for more Soft drinks, and the kitchen Crew ran out of food early in the afternoon, We suspected that we were going to have a big crowd, but didn't fore see one this big and they were Hungry, Thirsy and were continiously at the Vendor's tables. looking and more importantly , buying.

From all indications, This one was a huge sucess.[This message was edited by John Floyd on 23 February 2004 at 03:57 PM.]
