Magic Carpet Gathering
« on: May 28, 2005, 02:57:57 PM »
Just talked to RonC, the gathering this year will be July 22-24, Creekside Lanes, Winston-Salem, NC

Who's coming.  Whole bunch of newbies out there that haven't had the pleasure of beating up on me.

Hey, we can make it my birthday celebration!  I'll be turning another year on the 21st.

What will be involved beyond the requisite time on the lanes?

I'll be teaching summer school, but if I can get a sub for the 22nd and 25th, I'll be there.  I had a blast the last 2 years.  Yes, I'd even like to see you again SrKegler  

Pin-Nut, I'm sure there will be the traditional dinner and trip to Krispy Kream.

I have to work nights, but I can be around in the afternoon.  Maybe I'll burn some vacation if the date becomes firm.  Maybe I'll even be in a house by then.

Wow, first homeless person I've met.  Sorry for the problems, you can send Leticia down here to live with me until you get back on your feet.

29 is it this year buddy?  You can count me in as well I will most certainly be there.  My birthdy is the 8th of July perhaps a late celebration will be in order for both me and Mr. Nut.

Hammertime, Ron Clifton (Magic Carpet) has a "gathering" once a year for ball review members.  During the weekend he tapes your delivery and recommends small changes to improve your game.

Normally we pay $1 or $2 a game for lineage, make a trip to Crispy Creme, have a supper together, and try to stay off the police blotter.

Basically it's just a lot of fun meeting and bowling with people you talk to here on the website.

On Sunday he will usually put out a couple of tough shots, US Open, ABC tournament, etc.  Bowl 2 games on each pattern, high score usually gets a T-shirt autographed by everyone that attended.

Sure hope you can stop by at least, bring the folks along even if its just for a few minutes.

Ron is always happy to work with YABA bowlers to help them with their game.  

Best part is its free coaching from one of the best in the business.

NOLLSTER .. shortly RONC will be advising of hotels and directions .. you'll have plenty of time to make reservations. It really is a nice get-together .. think it will be worth the trip!

STORMWICK .. SR KEG gave good advise .. try to get there .. meet some interesting people!
