Re: Fun run at The Railyard

[Scott A Smiley <sc.smiley@juno.com>]

I do not support putting it back up between shows.  i would not see us
setting it up at the Railyard until after Flatonia if I remember
correctly.  That would be NB, Temple and Flat.  then be up at Railyard
for Jamboree.

I think that it is worth going to the shows since we have worked so hard
to get invites.  and the money.
