    The voters have spoken. And the next MCG Gathering is going to be held in Somerset, Ky. A big thanks too the Hahn Brothers and anyone else who helped with this proposal. This will be a great Gathering. As all the rest were. I just keep getting amazed that each Gathering continues to improve. Each year I wonder how the last year can be improved on, but somehow the promoters always seem to amaze me. I'll be posting the agenda later on for all to see. Thanks again, as I was amazed at the turnout for the voting. If that's any indication of the amount of people that will be attending, this should be the biggest yet. And, did I mention this will be the 5th Anniversary of the MCG Gathering.:thumbs2:

    383 miles, 6 1/2 hours from me. Maybe, depends on the date and how the economy is between now and then...

    Hope to see you there Earl. And if you do join we've just changed the due structure a little. Now the dues run from July to July. That way it's not righ at the Holidays and any members joining at the Gathering get a full year. :)
