Optional Saturday night Dinner:

Once again, Liz has graciously offered to coordinate a group for dinner

at The Victor Cafe on Saturday night. The Victor Cafe trademark is that, in

addition to having the waitstaff serve up excellent Italian cuisine, they

periodically burst into song: opera arias mostly; some recognizable show tunes

too. They've been doing this since the 1930's, and the photos on the wall

reflect their history. To get " a taste " see the website:

http://www.victorcafe.com/ . This is an OPTIONAL event ... and it will probably

run you $50+. But it is well worth the investment in yourself! If you are

interested, please contact Liz at ecbrks@..., and she will provide

you with details separately.

For another option, Kay Hoover has agreed to coordinate either a Chinese or

Italian restaurant excursion. Please contact her now if you want to go to one

of these options and/or can help transport other participants: kay@...

I'm sure there will be a few people staying at the hotel, either eating there or

at a walkable restaurant and/or enjoying the hot tub and pool.
