All,  please email me and tell me if you are interested in the BBQ train ride
Saturday night at the Railfair.  There are 6 free tickets available.   I need
to provide them with the names of those who will be using the free tickets by
Aug 1.

> If for some reason it doesn't work out, the same venues as last year are

> August and will not be able to forward them on to the ASTA folks.

> I am sorry to have to say it, but: Please note that after August 8, your

> Again, we need the names of the people so that we can label the
> tickets.  It is an accounting issue for us, so please help.

> Looking forward to a very fun time in Burnet.

> Thanks for participating.
