Anyone driving want to meet Tibs and I in Atlanta on Weds night?
I'm so looking forward to this gathering and meeting everyone. I am bringing back to Jax various brews from La and I will be making a trip to Connecticut in less than 2 weeks. Message me if there is anything particular I can bring back!
I'm considering it. I'd appreciate if I could get the info regarding the bus reservations. Cheers!
Can’t wait to meet see old pals and meet some new folks

Sponsorships=Brilliant! Danny came up with this plan.
We decided to offer 6 sponsorships, We can do Bronze level, after the 1st 6 are spoken for.
This will reduce attendees cost on the Bus Tour Package.
