I forgot about the banner! Here is what it looks like today:

I had no idea the biennial was memorialized on the banner. I think that's great, but I now I feel left out! :(

Larry,

You were a "newbie' at this biennial. For the next one in Brazil, you'll have to learn some of the "tricks of the trade", and you will. :)

I managed to get my John Hancock on that banner. Is it at your place now, Kathryn?

Everyone: Thanks so much for filing in the correct names; I have made the changes as suggested. There is still one gentleman, sitting between John Rees and Paul Craft at the BoD meeting, who's name escapes me. I think he is from California and there was beautiful woman accompanying him, but I can't remember his name.

p.s. I know this is probably not the most interesting thread, but I thought it was important to see the BoD in action.

Kim: Thank you. Hopefully I have all the names correct now. If not, let me know and I'll keep trying.

Larry, I looked at the pic you mentioned, and it looks like Lyle "Chip" Arnold between John and Paul.

This was my first Biennial and I'm hooked! I noticed the banner spread out on a large table in the Doubletree lobby after the conference ended, so I took that opportunity to sign it. I can see my signature (under the twin palm logo for Redland Nursery) in the nice banner photo in Post #5.
