I forgot one other suggestion. What about having the Saturday party and card turn-in start later... say at 7:30pm so people can enjoy the quarry longer after the run?

well that is 2 things I am an expert in is Air-conditioning and being a D.J. Being a D.J. at a party is very hard work!! I have done both for 15 yrs!! when someone request a song you try to accommodate them unless ground rules are established before hand. as for the previous comment you are rite that song is on the radio everyday!! From what i gather it could have been handled a little more professionally than it was..It is a party and music of that nature has been played before!! A simple please don't play that any more would have been nice, not the way I hear it was handled!! If a hot woman ask me to play something, I usually will As for the A/C I wish I would have known earlier I could have fixed it!! so remember that next year. I will be at hog mild's!!!

The staff at the Convention Ctr. have to be finished with Supper and everything cleaned up by 8.00pm, no over time for the employee's, also 12.00 is supposed to be the "Party over" time.

Do you have all the D.J. equipment and lights?

There was no-one more disappointed about the air conditioner situation than me!! It was supposed to be a night when I could finally cut loose and enjoy, dance and drink!! wrong!!!
I think the fault & blame starts with the Dam for not contacting us when it was discovered that the air wasn't working, hell we could have helped pay for the service call. also maybe "someone" should have been in there during the day checking on things. In years past I've usually been there by 11.00am putting up signs and making sure that enough chairs & tables were in place and the band or DJ had what they needed to set up. I'm like you, I've heard the Air has been having problems for years and they just keep piecing it together to get by. I plan on calling there myself today and hopefully getting the truth, we'll see. I'll let you know what I find out.

I'll say again, if there was a local Boat Club or group that could take over????????

you wanna be the founding member and get things rollong? ha ha

I agree it needs to be looked into, but one person cant do it all.

I beleave there is some good responsible people from the area that could do great things and keep the run going.

but can they stay sober? that's the question
