Hmmm. I'm not going to make Ferintosh in January so perhaps this might be a nice mid-winter event. ....

| | | Burns Dinner Postponed
Due to the inclement weather, the Burns Committee and the Country Club have decided to postpone tonight's Burns Dinner. We will meet with the Country Club next week to schedule a new date which we will forward to you as soon as possible.
I've PM those of you who have expressed an interest in coming the above message that has gone out. In case there maybe others who may have reserved but are not known by me. What good news that it is to be re-scheduled, the announcement said it wouldn't be for inclement weather! |
