I know it is 2 years from now, but it is time for me to try my best to hold a Polkfest worthy of those in the past.

I know Polkfest will be in ay HQ, just want to put my hat in for 2013.

Thanks

    Given what happened this year it's hard to say. But barring any problems. Atlanta sounds good. As with Orlando (we had friends there, so no hotel accommodations were necessary--and I still didn't make it), my best friend lives in Atlanta and is dying for us to visit! So the location is perfect. Now, we just have to make sure that we don't excite the 'Fates'!

    Thanks to Russ [and Steve--2011]...it takes quite a bit to put one of these Fests together and a gracious host to open his doors to everyone.

    Well... considering the fact that I now live in Villa Rica, there's absolutely no excuse for me not to be in attendance.
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore
