Newport Regatta and Saturday Dinner

[Peter J and Hunt]

Hi Folks,

Need to know likely partipants for the Newport Regatta, and we urgently need to know who's coming to dinner at the New York Yacht Club on Saturday night.

We have reserved the family dining room. Plan is for a choice of two entrees. It will be a prix-fix set up. Buy tickets for drinks.

I will be at the Newport Regatta and plan on a total of 3 for dinner on Sat. night.

Guys,

Sorry. Had to pull the plug on this dinner at NYYC. It is not financially viable to host a dinner there with our own room for 8 people. The notice of this dinner has been up for months. The roll call for a week. I cannot put the club at risk of a non-event. And the costs in the dining room would be 2-3X the event we were planning...if we had enough people.

We will arrange a more informal gathering when you arrive.

WF and I will be there, I have plane tickets to leave on Thursday.
