[Rmc-list] RE: convention updates

[Dennis & Debbie Pleau]

Steve and all,

You forgot Debbie the kids and I are also members of RMC!  We cheered as 
RMC was called at the banquet.  As for the car being auctioned off.  The 
high bidder now says he thought he was bidding 2,500 not 20,500.  That is a 
great excuse, but he couldn't have been in that room and not known the real 
price.  The guy who bid 20,000 said he would go ahead and buy it at that 
price if the other guy backs out.   I think the Convention clubs are going 
to donate the money to the Big Brother and Sisters.
