I'm not sure if this was already posted but there was an article in the Indianapolis Star today about the Buffet Fest in Baghdad. I couldn't find it online but for those of you in Indy, I hope you caught it.

I have a copy of the flyer that is being distributed throughout the Green Zone. Who should I email it to so it can get posted on here?

crash, sorry. I cannot help upload the file. But I can't wait to see it.

Quick question: Is this party invitation only? Is it open to any U.S. armed forces? Contractors? (some friends in the sandbox might enjoy a little R&R in your pool...)

It's open to everyone! I doubt Jimmy would approve of limiting participation.

After going through all the bags, I have to give an honorable mention to the Tradewinds Resort... http://www.tradewindsresort.com/

Their crew donated several nerf type basketball games, a variety of beach games, several decks of cards, dominos, and dice, and what I am sure was a very touching card...(I didn't want to snoop), plus they bought lots of drinks and tipped us well... :)

Yeah I know...I quoted myself... :roll: :lol: :lol:

Rack 'em...this stuff is going out today.

I like the idea but I think it should be up to crash - or maybe the Indy CIP with the bench...

EXCELLENT work, Breeze & Co.!!! :P :P

I guess I'd thought their palm would stay over there...as long as it's needed (and/or as long as that's home for some of our troops). Crash, I think that's up to you...but I'm sure we'd love to see some pictures.... :wink: :D

Party City is still in the picture. We're pushing the deadline, but there is still time to make something happen...

The banner is being finished and I will ship it out tomorrow...
