UPDATE ON LOJ RETEAT:
Hey Everybody,
Were just writing to let you know the status of the Loj retreat...We seem to
have enough cars for now and the planning meeting was a success. So far we
have 7 spots left for the Loj retreat and they are available on a first come
first serve basis. To get one of these spots just find me, my cell phone
number is 646 824 6683 (my voicemail doesnt work)...there also will be room
for 8 people who want to just come up saturday morning at 9 AM and leave
saturday night...if people are interested in this, it is free of charge
since you will not be staying overnight...Once again, we will give the last
7 overnight spots away to whoever can find me and give me the $30
first...Thanks,
Arun and the rest of MOST MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4
