    Sounds fantastic. I plan to be there. I posted it to FB but changed the thumbnail to the logo.
    The thumbnail of “Raleigh” looked too much like a jail cell. LOL!

    Do you have to be southern to attend? Does it count that my parents transplanted to Florida two decades ago? Can I be southern by association? What if I promise to say y’all the whole time?

      Linda – I like to think there is a little bit of Southern in all of us. If not, we will give a quick lesson on Southernisms. You will be a pro by the time we are done. πŸ™‚ Hope you can make it.

    You know I so want to be there Shirley. My son is in full swing band competitions then. If anything changes with his schedule I will let you know. I am so disappointed not to be able to make it. It is so close to me too.
