Posted this in the jam section and thought it could go here too. #Sorry if this is not the proper forum.
The "ITCHIN TO PICK" Bluegrass Jam Session..... is going to take
place whether we have 5, 50, or 500 people in attendance....This is a
no charge event.... but there may be a request for a $2.00 donation
from each participant to help me cover some of the ancillary expense
associataed with setting this thing up.
The details have been completed for our arrangement with the Galt
House (800-626-1814) to host this event.
The dates are March 30 & 31st, 2007
We do have special room rates for this event ..the same deal as BOTO.
FYI... For those that may not know... this going to function just
like any other indoor bluegrass event with the exception of having
to buy a ticket to see the bands perform because there will be no
bands performing or presenting a staged show... IT'S A WEEKEND JAM
SESSION..... nothing more... or less.
Nothing else is going on that time of year for bluegrass... so why
not join us?... This is time of year that most are "itchin to pick",
thus the name has evolved for this same event
We can pick pretty much anywhere we want to in the Galt House, but....
PICKING IN THE ROOMS MUST CEASE AT 10:pm... the reason being.... we
are not big enough to have them reserve an entire floor for this
first time out of the box and they have to consider their other guest
as well... Should we get lucky and reserve enough rooms,they will
designate a "picking floor" with no time restrictions.
Either way we can pick all night if we want to.....but NOY IN THE
ROOMS that are being set aside for the special rates.
We will be using the EAST side fo the Galt House where the rooms are
all suites, and have just been refurbished within the last year.
A suite with two double beds for four people is approx. $150.00 with
all taxes....( $20 extra per person for a rollaway bed)
Call 1-800-626-1814 to make your reservation at the Galt House...do
it now so they know we are not fooling around.... the more rooms we
have the more they can do fo us...
THE BALL IS NOW IN OUR COURT..... MAKE YOUR RESERVATIONS ASAP or
IMMEDIATELY IF YOU WANT THIS THING TO TAKE OFF..... IT WILL TAKE A
HUGE WORD OF MOUTH EFFORT TO MAKE THIS THING HAPPEN...At this point
there are no advertising flyers... just word of mouth......
The Galt House will keep me informed on how many rooms are being
reserved so we can get a feel for how things are going to shape up...
HOPE YOU ALL CAN JOIN US AND PLEASE START TALKING TO YOUR BUDDIES AND
FRIENDS TO PARTICIPATE..... THIS IS A "GO"...
Thanks... George Garrett
