| Jan. 1, 2008 smooth01 Men's 50 128 posts | TOC Banquet Would like to hear some input from anyone that attended the banquet last year, is this a worth while event to attend? |
| Jan. 1, 2008 4x4 Men's 65 601 posts | Well - if you call the worlds largest private airplane hangers boring then it wouldn't be for you. There were 2600 people there - they moved the planes out of the hangers (which they had available for us to tour), had a band + stadium sized large screens TV's for the people in the 2nd hanger. There was a bar available and everyone there seemed to have a good time. The food service was buffet style so there was no problem with servers. For a large event it went off very well and it was really the highlight of the weekend. Other than that it was like any other well run large national tounament. |
| Jan. 1, 2008 4x4 Men's 65 601 posts | Correction - worlds largest private airplane collection (per the folks there). |
| Jan. 2, 2008 BruceinGa Men's 70 3233 posts | Lots of people! If you don't like crowds its not the place to be. |
| Jan. 2, 2008 bashbro1 Men's 70 267 posts | Hey Smooth01! If you like… you can vuew our complete 153 slide pictures we took @ last year’s inaugural TOC. Just paste in the link below into your local Browser’s Address line and press enter or the “GO” button. The slide show is a chronology of events for our W.E. Ruth 60’s trip to Winter Haven which includes our entire trip from Seattle’s Sea-Tac International airport to the Orlando’s MCO (note: Floridians often joke that the airport code MCO stands for "Mickey's Corporate Office" or "Mickey and Co." – Orlando being the location of the Walt Disney World Resort – but it actually stands for the airport's former name, McCoy Air Force Base, named for Colonel Michael N. W. McCoy, who died during an annual competition held at the base. View some great pics of the fabulous grand dinner that Terry H. and his group of lieutenants put on in the huge hangers in addistion to the great band and a very attractive blonde girl lead singer!!!

Ruth 60’s Communications Officer/Webmaster/Local Recuriter and when time permits player!) 2007 TOC SLIDESHOW: http://good-times.webshots.com/slideshow/558577821HnDvcs;jsessionid=abcinreQPghI9cgMd66Cr Bashbro1’s NW Senior Softball Website: http://www.bashbro1nwseniorsoftball.com/ |

Yes, me and my gal friend have taken nearly 5000 senior softball pics in 90 individual albums since I joined SS in 2002. I have established friendships with several of the Florida Raptors gang; Donna and Toll Mihailoff and the Godwins’ Kathleen and Ralph! Just great people! bashbro1 (W.E.
