LarryC Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Time to reawaken this sleeping giant of our concert of May 4, 2013, at Strathmore Hall in Bethesda, MD!! I originally posted on this back in November. I now have 12 people down to attend this concert, 11 to participate at the usual pre-concert dinner at the Black Market Restaurant in Kensington, MD. As many of you know, the dinner is tightly scheduled to begin at 5:15 p.m., to allow us to park in the garage and get seated. PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP IF YOUR PLANS HAVE CHANGED AND YOU CANNOT ATTEND THIS CONCERT! Our seats are very good, in the front part of the orchestra (main floor), about a third of the way back. The spectacular and prized balcony seats of the past are no longer open for seating, unfortunately. The seats are $49.60 each (a 20% discount), or $99.20 for two. I'm calling for your payment now, having delayed earlier because I only had to make a deposit and it was too long between making reservations and having to pay Strathmore. Even so, one kind soul has already sent me his check! The people going are me, Gary (as always!), Thebes (ditto), Colonial Hoo, Skonopa, past attendees Cheryl and Bill, and Jim and Bridey, and, new to this adventure, Sherry and Warren, and Sharon, a friend. The concert starts at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday May 4, 2013, at Strathmore hall. As I said, dinner will start promptly at 5:15 p.m. at the Black Market. I will be sending all of you e-mails in short order. Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Oh alright, but I really don't like eating that early. Makes me feel like I'm some kinda senior citizen. Oh, right, I almost am.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryC Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 If any of you haven't sent your check, would you please do so? Thank you! Strathmore has told me that reservations must be finalized and paid for next Monday. I don't want the number to fall below 10, or we lose the 20% discount. I'm not going back to ask anyone for more money! If we fall below 10, I may have to make it up myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonialHoo Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Check has been sent. Hopefully you will see it today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
